BADEN BADEN NEW JAZZ MEETING 1975 "TEN YEARS GLOBE UNITY ORCHESTRA"

Here we have another installment of the Baden Baden Free Jazz Meetings.
This post of the concerts/rehearsals is not complete.
Several titles were released and are still available and therefore not included here.
You can find the missing titles: "Every Single One of Us is a Pearl," "Ruby, My Dear," and "Kunstmusik II" on Pearls (FMP 0380)  at destination-out.
 "Marañao," "Composition 23B," Jahrmarkt," "Hannebüchen." and "The Forge" on Baden-Baden '75 (FMP CD 137). The CD is to my knowledge still in print although harder to obtain. Try it here f.e.

I'm indebted to Peter Losin for his detailed information regarding line-up and titles - I took the freedom to duplicate it here with some minor changes. (Miles Ahead)

Notes:

Some of the music from the Workshop portion of this set (discs 1-3) has been issued commercially: "Every Single One of Us is a Pearl," "Ruby, My Dear," and "Kunstmusik II" on Pearls (FMP 0380), and "Jahrmarkt" on Jahrmarkt/Local Fair (Po Torch PTR/JWD 2). These titles were recorded November 25-27 at the Südwestfunk Studios in Baden-Baden during the New Jazz Meeting dedicated to "Ten Years Globe Unity Orchestra."

For Part 2 of Kowald's "Jahrmarkt," the group is divided into six small groups throughout in the studio. From left to right in this recording:

Kowald (tuba), Schlippenbach (acc), Brötzmann (cl)
Parker (ss), Wheeler, Rutherford
Christmann, Niebergall, Lovens
Braxton
Mangelsdorff, Dudek (ts)
Rava, Carl (ts), Pilz

The issued version of "Jahrmarkt" is presented as a single performance but in fact -- because of the logistics of arranging musicians in groups around the studio -- it was recorded in three pieces.


Rutherford's "Hip Hymn No. 2" also involved complicated logistics. The musicians are arranged in four groups from left to right:

Braxton, Dudek, Parker, and Wheeler
Christmann and Brötzmann
Schlippenbach, Kowald, Niebergall, and Lovens
Rava, Carl, Pilz, and Mangelsdorff

In addition, Rutherford prepared a tape of the synthesizer part, and the group played on top of it.

Discs 4-5 were recorded during a public performance on November 28 at Kurfürstliches Schloss in Mainz.

Only 23 days later Schlippenbach recorded his LP "The Living Music".
Except Paker and Bailey the line-up was the same as for this broadcast. The actual LP "The Living Music" might be one of the most often re-issued recordings of Free Jazz.
First there was an edition on A.v.Schlippenbach's 'Quasar' imprint. Than the more widely distributed FMP 0100. A CD on John Corbett's Unheard Music Series. And finally a re-release on LP through Cien Fuegos in 2013.

MANFRED SCHOOF QUINTET/SEXTET "KÖLN & MONTREUX, 1967/68"

Here we have a short track from the same group as on the commercially released recordings. You'll find it also here.

The other track stems from a line-up which left no official traces - Dudek still in and Pilz already joining - so to say...and the drummer was Mani Meumeier who started to play Free Jazz with Irene Schweizer and founded the 'Krautrock' group Guru Guru the same year.

INTERNATIONALES NEW JAZZ MEETING AUF BURG ALTENA (JG RECORDS/Compilation, 1970)

Here's my first attempt for a compilation. In general I prefer "proper" albums, but with such a line-up I couldn't withhold myself.

A special mentioning goes for a rather unusual piece by Albert Mangelsdorff's group (in my ears) and to the Schlippenbach Trio with Paul Lovens and Michel Pilz! Some month ago I was convinced that there is no official recording by this trio.
( see > http://inconstantsol.blogspot.com/2010/10/schlippenbach-trio-first-incarnation.html ) - to err is human...and in this case quite joyful.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
