Reviews ~~~~~~~ By Aaron Cohen http://www.downbeat.com/defaultl.asp?sect=editorspicks201306#3 Drummer Frank Rosaly has been a key player in Chicago’s thriving jazz scene for the past dozen years—alongside flutist Nicole Mitchell, saxophonist Dave Rempis, vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz and others—but this stellar disc marks his debut as a bandleader. The album illustrates that he is a continually inventive writer and arranger who is, really, just getting started. Cicada Music began six years ago as a score to filmmaker Brian Ashby’s documentary about scrap-metal collectors, Scrappers. For this disc, Rosaly reworked the themes, and the compositions’ varying playing times create a fascinating sense of movement: While “Typophile/Apples” exceeds 12 minutes, four other tracks are only about two minutes long. The ensemble has a striking tone with a frontline of three clarinetists (James Falzone, Jason Stein and Keefe Jackson) alongside Adasiewicz’s vibes. The combination gives a beautiful lift to “Babies” (which bassist Jason Roebke helps keep grounded) and creates intriguing timbre shifts on “Wet Feet Splashing.” Rosaly’s electronics and Roebke’s cracklebox add tasteful and evocative atmospherics, including a bell-and-drum choir sound on the 75-second “Adrian.” Rosaly shapes his compositions through his drumming, and his quiet power is more effective here than if he had played with overt aggression. -- By Tom Burris http://www.freejazzblog.org/2013/12/round-up-chicago.html By Mark Corroto http://www.allaboutjazz.com/cicada-music-frank-rosaly-delmark-records-review-by-mark-corroto.php By Mike Shanley http://www.jazztimes.com/articles/103164-cicada-music-frank-rosaly Par Alain Tomas (fr) http://www.jazzhot.net/PBEvents.asp?ActionID=67240448&PBMItemID=26197 Por Ángel Gómez Aparicio (es) http://www.cuadernosdejazz.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2909:opinan-los-criticos-angel-gomez-aparicio&catid=10:general&Itemid=11
