Reviews of Fiona Nehama Abrahami
18/08/2010 Peter Quinn, JazzWise, Sept 2010 | @Random Excess CD: This eclectic collection of tracks is extraordinarily rich in ideas and textural detail; [it] captures the originality of Abrahami's compositional world. What's perhaps most impressive about Random Excess is the way in which Abrahami proves as adept at extended through-composed pieces and sumptuous jazz ballads as she is at atonal miniatures. [They're] all part of the same continuum for this composer. | 01/07/2010 David Katz, Riddim Magazine, Germany | (Translated from German.) No matter how many times you listen to the album Random Excess every time sounds like the first time. Each time you play this CD you discover something new, something surprising. It is invitingly danceable, but also gives listeners space for their own introspection. It is unique. And you'll never get bored with it. | 08/01/2010 Jumbo Records, Leeds | From an incredibly varied musical career taking in not just jazz but jazz-rock, jazz-punk, reggae, 2 -Tone (even touring with the Beat and playing with the legendary Desmond Dekker) and more, Fiona has assembled a crack team of superb musicians Gary Boyle (Isostope), Kenny Higgins, Joel Purnell, Rob Lavers, John Ellis, Matt Owens, Atholl Ransome (Haggis Horns), Simon Beddoe and Cleve Freckleston (Phew!) to play her great compositions. Not just a Jazz album, more a diverse medley of different genres and routes (roots?) all brought together under the banner of Jazz...And it more than works....From light touched cocktailish craftyness to upbeat contempary cuts this moves through different moods and grooves with ease. Recommended. |
