"An Israeli expatriate living and playing in the Netherlands, bass clarinetist Ziv Taubenfeld searches for light in the midst of the dark period that surrounded the recording of his new opus “Out of the Beast Came Honey”: on this date, as part of the flexible unit called Full Sun, is American saxophonist and clarinetist Michael Moore, established in Amsterdam, also an immigrant of the jazz world. It’s not a simple act of kindness and recognition: Taubenfeld gives him space, as he does to the rest of the musicians here gathered, the local trombone legend Joost Buis, Nico Chientaroli from Buenos Aires, another Israeli, Omer Govreen, and Onno Govaert, a Dutch drummer already well known by all Clean Feed listeners. That’s the concept of this ensemble: to present music resulting directly from the individual contributions of all these musicians and their dealings with the leader’s writing and graphic scores. The purpose was captivating in itself, «to create paths that lead to the big unknown, the place where beauty is free», and the results are even more than what you hoped for. This music tells stories and plays with form and sound, floating «somewhere on the infinite jazz continuum», as Anthony Braxton could have said. Bingo."
