James Carter Interview for "REED RAPTURE IN BROOKLYN"
REED RAPTURE IN BROOKLYN is a 12 CD box set from Mahakala Music.
REED RAPTURE IN BROOKLYN is also a full length feature film by the multiple prize winning filmmaker DON McGLYNN who served as Director and Producer.
It features such widely renown internationally admired musicians as DAVID LIEBMAN, VINNY GOLIA, DAVID MURRAY, JOE LOVANO, JON IRABAGON, JOE McPHEE, JAMES CARTER, TIM BERNE, ROSCOE MITCHELL, LOTTE ANKER, KEN VANDERMARK, COLIN STETSON.
It is a reed summit and these musicians play nearly all of the many different reed instruments.
This is a once in a lifetime ambitious project - a true magnum opus filmed during the pandemic in Brooklyn NYC.
It was initiated by Ivo Perelman, a Free Jazz tenor saxophonist, and painter of abstract art, who played duets with this very diverse of group of 12 musicians, with many different ethnic and national backgrounds, different ages, different histories and training and disciplines.
All of this has been distilled into the spontaneous improvisation heard in this massively ambitious project.
It all sounds crazy and impossible to achieve, yet somehow it came together against the odds.

I notice that James speaks about embouchure, mouthpiece and reed when it is a question of altissimo grasp; no mention was made of the use of fingerings - not an oversight on his part, in my opinion.😢 It is my view that not too much emphasis is played to the importance of lip use and/or adjustments, mouthpiece and reed - grant it that fingering choices are also just as important 👌 The humility and modesty of James Carter during this great interview 👏 contrasts the bellicose ferocity and beauty of his performance 👏 which many connoisseurs of Organic Jazz do appreciate 👍 😢😅😂What an organic jazzician in the person of James Carter! 👏 ❤
Detroit James Carter 🎷🔥
Yes, bro, it is music that heals well. I learned to breathe from you
James is as articulate a speaker as a performer. A blessing to have his 🎷 in our lifetime.
My favorite saxophone player, saw him at the Blue Note with Galactica and Ronnie Foster. Beautiful Gentleman.
I saw him last night at a concert in Bucharest, Romania! Awesome!
What bari sax is that?
