Description
Paradox Jazz Orchestra and James Carter play John Coltrane
Paradox Jazz Orchestra joins forces with saxophonist James Carter for a concert dedicated to the music of John Coltrane. Rather than treating Coltrane’s work as a museum piece, the orchestra approaches it as living material, full of movement, risk and room for new ideas.
Known for its bold big band sound, Paradox Jazz Orchestra brings Coltrane’s music into a new form through specially written arrangements for large jazz ensemble. The result moves between quiet ballads, freer passages and energetic ensemble playing, with space for improvisation, interaction and a bit of organised chaos. Lovely. Jazz behaving itself would be boring anyway.
James Carter is one of the most distinctive saxophone voices of his generation. His playing can move from velvet-soft to explosive, and he is known for switching between tenor, alto, soprano and baritone saxophone with ease. Since breaking through in the 1990s, Carter has worked with major names across jazz, including Wynton Marsalis, Herbie Hancock and Lester Bowie.
For this concert, his range, blues feeling and adventurous style make him a fitting guide through Coltrane’s musical universe. Together with Paradox Jazz Orchestra, he brings a programme that honours tradition while keeping the music sharp, open and alive.
