Inspired by Gunther Schuller's improvisatory convergence of classical music and jazz, David Chesky's Jazz in the New Harmonic brings a new perspective to Schuller's idea of Third Stream. Chesky's stylistic approach explores the depths of dissonance and rhythm alike. A phenomenal lineup joins Chesky on piano: Peter Washington on bass, Billy Drummond on drums, Javon Jackson on tenor, and Jeremy Pelt on trumpet. The subliminal blending of instruments forms a satisfying color to the dissonant tones. Sensibly constructed. Jazz in the New Harmonic is full of inciting ideas and satisfyingly soulful.
Jazz in the New Harmonic was recorded with a Neumann KU-100 binaural microphone that was implanted within a “dummy” head's ear canals, thus picking up sound images as heard by the average person. When played over a high quality, full-size system or headphones, the binaural adaptation provides a stunningly accurate 3D reproduction of the original sound field.
Chesky Records introduces its new Binaural+ Series. Binaural sound has been around for a quite some time; however, until now it was simply for headphones and could not be enjoyed over speakers. Our Binaural+ Series recordings sound great on both headphones and speakers, capturing the sound in a way that allows you to enjoy the music as if you were sitting in front of the musicians themselves. The Binaural+ Series sessions were recorded in high-resolution 192-kHz/24-bit sound with a special Binaural head (a “dummy” human head with specially calibrated microphones for ears).
These new Binaural+ Series albums capture more spatial realism for the home audiophile market, bringing you one step closer to the actual event. Now headphone and speaker users will hear the same three-dimensional sound and imaging as audiophiles have for the past 25 years with Chesky Recordings.
