AutoRip, CDs & Vinyl › Styles › Jazz, Edition Records, Jazz, Mark Guiliana, Vinyl StoreVinyl LP pressing. 2022 album from one of the most influential, virtuosic and commanding drummers of our time, featuring Shai Maestro, Jason Rigby and Chris Morrissey. Following his acclaimed quartet albums 'Jersey' and 'Family First', this third release is everything you'd expect from Mark Guiliana, whilst taking the music in new directions we've never seen from him before. In complete contrast to his latest BEAT MUSIC! Work, 'the sound of listening' (intentionally lower case) is a deeply honest and expressive album by a musician who knows where he's headed and what he wants to say with people he deeply trusts. The title and idea behind 'the sound of listening' is taken from the book 'Silence' by Thích Nhất Hạnh, which considers, as Mark explains, 'the inner silence required to truly observe the world. ' In 'the sound of listening' the entirety of compositional breadth of Mark's acoustic and electronic influences is brought together, interspersed with miniature vignettes in a unified voice: the album speaks of Mark's own journey and thinking with his relationship to music - to see the world and his presence within it through a zoomed out lens, where differences are unified and perspectives aligned. Track titles including 'a path to bliss', and 'the most important question', reflect Mark's passionate response to his own exploration and path to serenity, which takes centre stage in this meticulously thoughtful, introspective album.
