The French pianist Eve Risser works with improvised ensembles of many sizes: a
duo with the Japanese drummer Yuko Oshima called Donkey Monkey; a quartet
called the New Songs; an 11-piece group with brass and electronics called White
Desert Orchestra. But some of her strongest work happens when she plays
alone. “Des Pas Sur La Neige” (“Footprints in the Snow”) (Clean Feed) is her
first solo piano recording, three long pieces that remain quiet and complex,
elegant but tense. It’s not any kind of typical free-improvisation piano
record; in fact, piano notes created in the customary way, by striking a key,
are in the minority among the sounds on this record. Most of what you hear is
made by scraping and tapping and knocking and brushing inside the instrument,
in focused, flexible patterns. (There’s also a great sense of physical space in
this recording, produced either by multiple microphones or overdubs, as well as
some layers of sound I can’t quite place, including a faint electronic tone.)
The album lasts for little more than an hour, and remains cohesive in concept
and sound. It’s great not to know exactly how she does that.
