Whether in the bands of Wayne Shorter, Joshua Redman, Chick Corea, Joni Mitchell or Norah Jones: Brian Blade's drumming is always recognizable. Elegant, bouncy, breathing - such adjectives come to mind when Blade colors and shapes music. Unusually for a drummer he prefers the soft, fine tones and thinks in large compositional arcs. This is also evident in the pieces he and his long-time friend Jon Cowherd composed over the years for his “Fellowship Band” since 1997. Lyrical jazz with a long breath and a sense for beautiful melodies.
deutsch:
Egal ob in den Bands von Wayne Shorter, Joshua Redman, Chick Corea, Joni Mitchell oder Norah Jones: Brian Blades Schlagzeugspiel ist stets erkennbar. Elegant, federnd, atmend - solche Adjektive kommen einem in den Sinn, wenn Blade das musikalische Geschehen geschmackvoll und reaktionsschnell auf Fellen und Becken koloriert und gestaltet. Ungewöhnlich für einen Schlagzeuger zieht er die leisen, feinen Töne vor und denkt in großen kompositorischen Bögen. Das merkt man auch den Stücken an, die er über die Jahre für seine 1997 gegründete Fellowship Band komponiert hat. Lyrischer Jazz mit langem Atem, der keine Scheu vor schönen Melodien hat.

Between 5:50-6:45 well executed .

[@daejinhong5461]

I just realized that one clarinetist comes first before band starts. However, I am not sure he made a mistake or whole band made a mistake.

I like this, but, maybe the additional instruments in this arrangement are somewhat detracting? Or maybe I've just the heard the original so much (and love it) that it's hard to get used to this :)
