	Bad Plus - The Rite Of Spring
	• Manufacturer: AEC • SKU: 12502610 • UPC: 888430240520 • Shipping: $1.95 • Description: Personnel: Ethan Iverson (piano); Dave King (drums); Reid Anderson (electronics). Recording information: Kaleidoscope Sound Studios (06/2013). Those familiar with the Bad Plus know that part of the group's aesthetic is to extend the context and reach of jazz as popular music. Earlier recordings have delivered provocative original compositions alongside standards, modern pop songs and jazz tunes. This album-length performance of Igor Stravinsky's iconic Rite of Spring extends their ouevre with a disciplined twist. Pianist Ethan Iverson, bassist Reid Anderson, and drummer Dave King have pared his score to its essentials and play the entire work. It has been honed for recording after over 30 live performances. The trio has taken its dense themes, tempos, tones, dissonant harmonics and timbres, and attempted to perform it whole as straight as possible -- without jazz improvisation, which doesn;t mean there isn't room for interpetive license. King is allowed the most interpretive leeway because Stravinsky didn't write for a drum kit. The century-old Rite of Spring is infamously known as an orchestral ballet that inspired a riot during its debut in Paris. Though it does commence irreverently with the electronic sound of a human heartbeat (and Anderson adds other ambient sonics throughout its first movement), the score remains the focus of the playing. Iverson sticks closely to the melodies, deftly playing different ones on each hand. He makes his way through the various themes with requisite force. Anderson's glorious pizzicato playing asserts itself in earnest in the last half of "Adoration of the Earth: The Augurs of Spring." It acts as a primary melodic instrument that plays counterpoint and executes other melodic tasks. The dazzling dance between the pianist and bassist becomes intimate and frenetic in "Ritual of Abduction," while King provides another dynamic dimension in embellishing his lower drums with snare-cymbal fills. His playing on "The Sage/Dance of the Earth" underscores the dance-like element with a brief circular rhythm as Anderson strides out of Iverson's execution of extended harmonies. The second part, "The Sacrifice: Introduction," commences on nearly mystical terms, holding the drama close and taut. Fierce percussive interludes and pulsing dissonances are rampant in "Glorification of the Chosen One." "The Sacrifice: Evocation of the Ancestors/Ritual Action of the Ancestors" offers ringing chords, rolling tom-toms, and an inquisitive, time-stretching bassline. Iverson's piano goes inside two melodies, drawing them out purposefully and passionately. King ramps up the tension to almost unbearable intensity until Anderson joins him and it explodes. In the final movement, Iverson's personally held assertion that Stravinsky was the father of prog rock is evidenced by shifting time signatures and emphatic chordal/melodic pulse sequences that seemingly contradict one another but don't. The Bad Plus' Rite of Spring is an incendiary yet...

The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday because for many retailers it was the day they went from being in the red to being in the black when they became profitable for the year. It is also the official beginning of the holiday shopping season, and Black Friday has become known for some of the best bargains, discounts and deals of the entire year! Everyone has watched stampeding crowds on the local news or diehard bargain hunters camping out overnight so they can be among the first to grab limited black friday specials at their favorite local retailers... However, if you prefer doing your holiday discount shopping from the warm and cozy comfort of home, then Cyber Monday was designed with you in mind! Online retailers spotted the Black Friday frenzy sweeping across the country as it took over brick and mortar locations - rather than compete for your black friday attention, they concocted a day that is all their own and named it Cyber Monday! The Monday after Thanksgiving is when your favorite online stores slash prices and offer their very best prices to help usher in the online holiday shopping season! That means big savings for you whether you choose to brave the local crowds on Black Friday or avoid the madness by browsing online during Cyber Monday Sales!

In fact, this promises to be an exceptionally consumer-friendly holiday shopping season with sales, coupons and discounts extending far beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday and allowing you to find the best prices on holiday gifts until the very last minute!
