Description:
Most of my works with soundtracks are based on speech grooves. But Buku is mainly based on short musical sound bytes: a hit, a roll or a lick, taken from original jazz recordings: inspiring moments of great intensity, energy and beauty. Buku is about the soul of the alto sax and at the same time it is a tribute to three alto giants: Charlie Parker, Cannonball Adderley and Art Pepper. Meet them in Buku!
The title ‘Buku’ refers to a remark by Charlie Parker about Dizzy Gillespie in an interview with Paul Desmond, added below. Nobody seemed to know what Parker is referring to. Probably Parker said ‘beaucoup’, the French word meaning ‘a lot’, so Dizzy was playing a lot…
