Iranian-American saxophonist Hafez Modirzadeh is part of a growing number of
musicians exploring different modes of expression to incorporate microtonality
with jazz practice. This latest endeavour to advance his theory of
“chromodality” — fusing Persian scales with standard Western temperament —
enlists three excellent pianists to perform on a specially tuned instrument
that re-tunes eight keys on a keyboard while leaving the rest in equal
temperament. He sent his scores for a series of duo pieces in advance to Kris
Davis, Craig Taborn, and Tyshawn Sorey (the acclaimed drummer and composer who
also happens to be an excellent pianist), but each musician encountered the
re-tuned piano for the first time in the studio. Most of the tracks are pensive
original pieces where the pitches may seem wobbly to ears only accustomed to
standard scales, but the microtonality brings out strange, alluring new
harmonies and melodic lines of much greater nuance. Especially interesting are
some classics by Thelonious Monk, a pianist who famously inserted an adjacent
note to suggest a bent or “blue note”.
