Escho 12:
Dane TS Hawk & The Cerebral Hemispheres – Coming Up (LP)
Coming Up contains: LP / CD / Note sheet / A letter
Description
In this series of compositions, arranged exclusively for horns, TS Høeg's highly personal Danish blues is heard in its fullest form. Coming Up is caught in a sonic Bermuda-triangle between fiery fanfares, unusual timbres and uplifting waves of wistfulness. True to form, the composer honks up front on his alto sax, and is joined this time by The Cerebral Hemispheres (Dinesen, Tranberg and Hyhne), on tenor sax, trumpet and trombone.
TS Høeg is like a bird of prey among the pigeons in the Danish cultural dovecot, and has since the late seventies been a great source of inspiration for artists of younger generations. From the late seventies experiments and punk jazz of Cockpit Music and Tapehead, through the eighties and nineties with the alternative big band sounds of Somesax and the Great Mongo Dilmuns, and with today's numerous guest appearances and solo shows. This is celebrated with the release of Coming Up, Høeg's second on Escho and the follow up to Dome Music from 2006.
