Tales From The Jacquard is a commanding statement from the Julian Siegel Jazz Orchestra, showcasing Siegel's imaginative compositions and dynamic arrangements. Inspired by the intricate patterns and mechanical rhythms of the historic Jacquard lace-making process, the album pulses with inventive big band energy and sophisticated melodic interplay, guided by Siegel’s expressive tenor and soprano saxophones.
This release stands out for its unique conceptual basis, weaving the rhythms of lace machinery into a jazz orchestra context, resulting in bold textures and kinetic momentum rarely heard in big band jazz. Commissioned by Derby Jazz, the suite is complemented by new arrangements of Siegel’s originals and a lively reworking of Cedar Walton's "Fantasy in D," making it an essential listen for fans of innovative modern jazz.
