A pianist of ascendant prominence in improvised music, Kris Davis recently set
out to make her version of a rock album, bypassing most of the usual
trappings. Infrasound, the band she assembled for the task, has Nate Radley on
guitar, Gary Versace on organ and Jim Black on drums, along with four bass
clarinetists: Joachim Badenhorst, Andrew Bishop, Ben Goldberg and Oscar
Noriega. It’s a recipe for all manner of tensions, notably between plotted
precision and ecstatic abandon, and Ms. Davis balances it all on her
compellingly murky new album, “Save Your Breath” (Clean Feed). The music
wriggles from one situation to the next: A track called “Jumping Over Your
Shadow” surrounds one solo by Mr. Goldberg with stop-and-start drums; a low,
snaking organ line; a countermelody on piano and guitar; and a sound field
produced by the other clarinetists, in a restive blend. This is music of
endless mutability, but it has an undeniable core.
