Derek Bailey & Franz Hautzinger - "Bailey Hautzinger" (2002)






 



In 2001 Franz Hautzinger visited Derek Bailey to make some music. For nearly a year, Hautzinger let the material rest, listened to it, and repeatedly made tiny changes in the sound. These are all signs that "Bailey Hautzinger" has not become a classic improv record. Hautzinger's style, heavily loaded with noise, sabotages the typical reaction patterns and clichés of (the really no longer very) free music. He has opened this music to new perspectives and created other structural levels. As an outsider Hautzinger is able to shift the party lines, thanks to his absolutely individual, idiosyncratic way of playing the trumpet.

One of the first improv records of the new century, said in all modesty.
