(the following translated from Turkish)
The scale of the immeasurability, the immeasurability of the measure The Oriental Wind group founded by Okay Temiz in 1975, also has exactly this creative character. Okay Clean (Don Cherry, Dexter Gordon, Clark Terry, Abdullah Ibrahim, Art Taylor) Bobo Stenson (Jan Garbarek – Bobo Stenson Quartet, The Charles Lloyd Quartet) Palle Danielsson (Keith Jarret, Elvin Jones, John Scofield) is a jazz by Lennart Aberg (Peter Erskine, New Jazz Group)
The first musician to invite Okay Temiz to jazz patterns was Dexter Gordon, one of the most important saxophonists in jazz history. Temiz describes the “jaz” adventure along the Scandinavian coast, which he played with Gordon (Dexter), as a “discovery”. But his mastery of finding his way in this new world takes place over the decade he spent with another jazz legend, Don Cherry.
“I was playing the Anatolian rhythms. But Don (Cherry), in light of his African American roots and his experience in the jazz world, heard the rhythms I played in a different context. We would never talk to Don (Cherry) before concerts, plan what we would play on stage, and not need rehearsals. When we went on stage, we would dialogue with each other through instruments and seek to create a common world.”
In this recording, the Oriental Wind group stages a unique hybrid music theory. The most important features that distinguish them from their counterparts are improvisation. The performance of the Oriental Wind group Montreaux Jazz Festival in 1982 is a jazz manifesto showing how to improvise by staying in rhythm and melody, and how to create a new sound universe with different music languages.
