Jim Black has been an influential figure in progressive jazz since the nineties. For this, his Intakt Records debut, he performs with pianist Elias Stemeseder and bassist Thomas Morgan. Linernotes by Hank Shteamer read, “The Constant, a suitelike collection of 10 new pieces, is a meditation on song- a celebration of plain-spoken melody but also an interrogation of the fragility of musical order.”
The name of this Jim Black Trio could easily have been ‘Quicksilver’ because the trio epitomises everything unpredictable and swiftly responsive. Embodied in The Constant it also revels in music of the highest quality – and that demands exceptional instrumental skills. Just a few bars into the leading song on this album it becomes that the musicians in this trio have this quality in spades. This ten-part suite brings special attention to the skill that Jim Black brings to the Art of Songwriting. His singular voice is contained in the manner in which he poses altogether different challenges in terms of phrasing, architecture and pacing.
