专辑介绍
by David R. Adler
The Master and Margarita is a long suite (two discs) inspired by Mikhail Bulgakov's classic novel of the same name. (It's not the first time pianist Simon Nabatov has tangled with Russian literary figures -- compare 2001's Nature Morte, his encounter with Joseph Brodsky.) For this imaginatively "out" project, Nabatov recruits the finest of players: violinist Mark Feldman, trumpeter Herb Robertson, and longtime rhythm section colleagues Mark Helias (bass) and Tom Rainey (drums). This lean, supple unit moves effortlessly between freely improvised and precisely notated passages; out-of-tempo storms of sound and tight, dancing grooves; sedate, elegant moods; wails of torment and confusion; and even playfulness on occasion. Each track is an epic of its own, often encompassing all these contrasts and more. To help orient listeners, Nabatov, in the liner notes, provides his own track-by-track plot summary. This is avant-garde jazz's answer to classical "programme" music, a particularly strong and ambitious entry in a growing genre.

- @orangebig( )：音乐形式上有室内乐组曲，剧院音乐和小说背景的斯拉夫舞曲，其中simon适时的滑音很有小说戏虐色彩，而mark的小提琴主要演绎了故事形形色色的人物，贝斯和鼓手节奏部变化带来的是彷徨优雅嬉戏时而啼笑皆非的场景，小号的自由即兴给音乐增添了先锋色彩，整张带着强烈的印象主义，意义上的新古典主义音乐
