Carrier, Francois/masayo Koketsu/daisuke Fuwa/takashi Itani

Japan Suite

Canadian alto saxophonist François Carrier's shows here a thrilling 78-minute journey into the heart of free jazz. On a 2019 tour in Japan, Carrier teamed up with local improvisers: bassist Daisuke Fuwa, saxophonist Masayo Koketsu, and drummer Takashi Itani. The result is a dynamic, collective exploration, where lyrical and abstract sax styles meet over Fuwa's melodic bass and Itani's bursts of rhythmic color. Highlights include the intense interplay on 'Kacho-Fugetsu' and 'Rakuyou.' This engaging album captures the universal language of improvised music and is a must-have for adventurous jazz fans seeking something fresh and spontaneous.
