Théâtre Maisonneuve - Montréal De 68$ à 89$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Le nouvel album de Joshua Redman, Words Fall Short, marque une évolution naturelle dans son art plutôt qu’un changement radical suite à son précédent album Where Are We. Alors que celui-ci mettait en vedette un chanteur, son nouvel opus s’articule autour de nouvelles compositions inédites, développées pendant la pandémie et interprétées par un quatuor jeune et plein de fraîcheur. Redman a réuni le pianiste Paul Cornish, le bassiste Philip Norris et le batteur Nazir Ebo, des musiciens qu’il décrit comme exceptionnellement talentueux, intuitifs et collaboratifs. Le groupe a développé une alchimie unique au cours d’une année de concerts, ce qui a conduit Redman à réaliser qu’ils étaient prêts à enregistrer. Les participations exceptionnelles de la saxophoniste Melissa Aldana, du trompettiste Skylar Tang et de la chanteuse Gabrielle Cavassa ajoutent de la profondeur à certains morceaux, soulignant l’engagement de Redman en faveur d’un jeu expressif et conversationnel plutôt que de solos compétitifs. Plusieurs titres et thèmes s’inspirent d’œuvres littéraires, notamment celles de Cormac McCarthy et Yiyun Li. Le nom de l’album vient de Where Reasons End de Li, faisant écho à la conviction de Redman dans la résonance émotionnelle de la musique et du langage, même lorsqu’ils sont insuffisants. Au fond, Words Fall Short est une réflexion sur l’imperfection humaine, la créativité et la connexion, embrassant la beauté ineffable que l’on trouve dans la collaboration spontanée et l’expérience partagée et imparfaite de l’être humain.

Joshua Redman’s new album Words Fall Short follows his acclaimed Where Are We, marking a natural evolution in his artistry rather than a departure. While the previous album featured a vocalist, this latest work is centered around new, previously unheard compositions developed during the pandemic and brought to life by a fresh, younger quartet. Redman assembled pianist Paul Cornish, bassist Philip Norris, and drummer Nazir Ebo—musicians he describes as exceptionally talented, intuitive, and collaborative. The group cultivated a unique chemistry over a year of performances, leading Redman to realize they were ready to record. Guest appearances by saxophonist Melissa Aldana, trumpeter Skylar Tang, and vocalist Gabrielle Cavassa add depth to select tracks, highlighting Redman’s commitment to expressive, conversational playing rather than competitive soloing. Lyrical inspirations and literary references, including works by Cormac McCarthy and Yiyun Li, inform several titles and themes. The album’s name comes from Li’s Where Reasons End, echoing Redman’s belief in the emotional resonance of music and language—even when they fall short. At its core, Words Fall Short is a reflection on human imperfection, creativity, and connection, embracing the ineffable beauty found in spontaneous collaboration and the shared, flawed experience of being human.
