“Wild Knots” is like a Jazz rollercoaster, but in the best way possible. Silke Eberhard and Céline Voccia came together and cooked up something truly special with this album under the Relative Pitch label.
Picture this: they're in Studio Börne 45 in Berlin on May 16th, 2021, and they're just letting their creativity run wild. Silke is on the sax, and she's making you feel like you're floating on clouds with her seductive melodies, sometimes smooth like Stan Getz, sometimes wild and free like Ornette Coleman.
And then there's Céline on the piano, pulling out sounds you didn't even know could come from a piano. From deep, percussive notes to reverb effects that make you feel like you're in another world. Her interplay with Silke is like a conversation between two old friends, complete with laughs, whispers, and moments of pure musical magic.
The album has seven tracks, and each one is like a little improvised story. From the wild excitement of “Exuberance” to the laid-back vibes of “For Uli,” it's a journey you won't want to miss.
“Wild Knots” is a testament to the incredible chemistry between Silke Eberhard and Céline Voccia. It's a must-listen for any jazz fan and it will leave you feeling exhilarated and inspired from start to finish.
“I think the whole question of meaning in music is difficult enough even if you hear me playing live right now in the same room! What I mean and what you take from it may be two quite different things anyway.”
— Evan Parker
