Description:
The title of ‘What Comes Next’, The last album of guitarist Peter Bernstein, Certainly echoes a question that we asked ourselves a few months ago. Shut in, Distrustful of leaving the house during a world pandemic, divided by politics and demonstrations, All during the most vital American presidential electoral year - any of these problems meant an uncertain future. But look at this title again: Peter Bernstein deliberately left aside the question mark. While the questioning continues to apply, Especially for musicians in a world without concerts. His ‘What Comes Next’ was not only published in the middle of the forties, But it was also recorded during the lockdown. With what was formerly the simple fact of gathering four stellar musicians in a room to play music together, This album shows a musical path to follow in the way that only the most incisive jazz is capable of it "without the question mark, What Comes Next implies that you have an idea, an intention ", explains Bernstein. "It seems to be such a huge concept now, But it is inherent in the very idea of ​​playing jazz. This is the fundamental question that we ask ourselves all the time when we are given the freedom to improvise: now, What am I playing? What note should come next? Where are we in the conversation? With the life of everyone suspended, This idea can be extended beyond the simple fact of playing music. The moment was particularly fortuitous because three months of isolation had given Bernstein many opportunities to compose new music. Touring schedules and dates close to concerts is hardly a problem, Bernstein brought together a dream quartet for the occasion. He is joined by the pianist winner of a Grammy, Sullivan Fortner (Cécile Mclorin Salvant, Roy Hargrove), The frequent drummer and playmate Joe Farnsworth (McCoy Tyner, Pharoah Sanders) and for the first time on one of the guitarist's own sessions by the always exquisite bassist Peter Washington. (Bill Charlap, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers).
"We have all kept our masks", recalls Bernstein, "It was a bit strange at first, But I'm just grateful to have the chance to try to create something with musicians I love. It was such a beautiful day. »»
