A merging of allegedly opposing forces/sensibilities. A balancing act of sorts. An eloquent evocation of intricate imagination and thoughtful improvisation. A dalliance with intensity that somehow often ends up feeling like intimacy. These are sentence fragments attempting to describe in words that which is certainly beyond words. Ah, the nagging and seemingly inescapable conundrum…
Here you go: the music of guitarist Gregg Belisle-Chi and his superbly responsive and flexible Quartet, negotiating dizzying compositional labyrinths while also spontaneously drawing us, the ardent listeners, into a magical web of shared ideas/language. So rarely does music that possesses more than a whiff of boldness also offer such graceful moments of open-ended musical conversation. I’m trying not to put ideas in your collective heads, but it’s hard not to. Sorry! Many of these compositions of Gregg’s are mind-bendingly complex; unison lines between guitar and saxophone effortlessly assaying that which my tiny brain strains to comprehend. Who imagines such madness, such intricacy?? Gregg Belisle-Chi does.
