Composer, multi-instrumentalist, educator, and conceptualist Anthony Braxton
was born in Chicago on June 4, 1945, and the celebration of his 75th birthday
has taken a major hit from the COVID-19 pandemic. At least nine 2020 events
have been cancelled so far—the only live performance that hasn’t yet been
stricken from the calendar for this year is a concert by Kobe Van Cauwenbergh’s
Ghost Trance Septet that’s scheduled for Luxembourg in November. But that just
makes the new Thumbscrew album, The Anthony Braxton Project, even more
valuable. Everyone in the trio—guitarist Mary Halvorson, drummer and
vibraphonist Tomas Fujiwara, and bassist Michael Formanek—has performed and/or
studied with Braxton, so they can approach his music like insiders. To make
their fifth album, they went through his archives to find rarely performed
compositions that suited their instrumentation. The material includes a mostly
notated piece that abstracts swinging pre-bebop jazz, an antic march that
erupts into slaloming detours and then snaps back into immaculate formation,
and a miniature packed with intervallic leaps so broad that you might get dizzy
trying to follow them. These pieces aren’t quite like anything that Thumbscrew
have played together before, but the musicians’ distinct instrumental
identities and inside-out awareness of one another’s moves ensure that they
still sound very much like Thumbscrew.
