Review
Ben Schwendener's CD "Witness of the Sun" from Gravity Records: This album, produced by Ben Schwendener and Mike Caglianone, is Ben's first Solo CD, recorded live at 7A West Studio in Charlestown, MA. The ten tracks on the CD begin with the premier recording of George Russell's latest composition "Pictures and Echoes", followed by nine original new works by Schwendener. Drawing from a wide range of influences, "Witness of the Sun' offers the listener an exciting new journey in the jazz tradition. "This thought provoking, sensitively developed CD must be considered part of the new jazz underground…It manages to defy commercialism and the "fad-du-jour" by relying on its' own organic, innovative ideas- free of stiffness and pedantry- to attract the listener thirsting for new impulses. The movement from synthesizer to acoustic piano, in the CD's more introspective latter half, shows versatility. This is Schwendener expressing his essential essence."
-George Russell "Witness of the Sun" features composer Ben Schwendener on piano/keyboards, Bhob Rainey on soprano saxophone, Hiro Harada playing six-string electric bass, Steve Chaggaris on drums, and guitarist Gregg Ramsey joining in on "Pictures and Echoes".
