​With his accessible and entertaining new album, Ornettiquette, trumpeter Chris Pasin and Ornettiquette, his adventurous band of inspired musicians, take
a joyous look at the music of saxophonist/composer/innovator Ornette Coleman and his long-time sonic partner trumpeter Don Cherry. This is the fourth
release as a leader for New York-native Pasin, a longtime practitioner of jazz from straight-ahead to avant-garde. “I became acquainted with the music of Ornette Coleman, Don Cherry, and Albert Ayler as a teenager, and played along with their records,” Pasin recalls. “A little later I transcribed ‘Ghosts,’ and started playing it with people, but it was not until a couple of years ago that the idea of a band playing the music inspired by these heroes occurred to me, thus engendering
Ornettiquette.” Highlights among Ornettiquette’s eight compositions include: “Ghosts” salutes its composer, Albert Ayler, with steady confidence, from the ethereal vocal/vibes/drums opening, through compelling trumpet/sax interplay, to a tender ending. A chill-inducing rendition of “Lonely Woman,” among Coleman’s most renownedcompositions, featuring an ominous bowed bass undercurrent, introspective vocal, and gripping trumpet solo. Ornettiquette’s upbeat and jaunty tune with a liltingmelody, “Tomorrow Is the Question.” Check out the fine saxophone solo and propulsive drumming.
