Reverso — Shooting Star-Étoile Filante (self-released)

On previous recordings, Reverso has explored the music of French composers Gabriel Fauré and Maurice Ravel, linchpins of the early 20th century classical repertoire. Here, the trio of trombonist Ryan Keberle, pianist Frank Woeste, and cellist Vincent Courtois are inspired by another French composer, Lili Boulanger (1893-1918), the short-lived but prodigiously talented artist who was the first female to win the Prix de Rome. Such was the grief of her sister Nadia that she gave up her own promising composition career, devoting herself to pedagogy, a teacher to many Europeans and a raft of American expats. Reverso titles the recording Shooting Star as an acknowledgement of Lili’s extraordinary gifts. While the composer would likely have heard little jazz, her work serves as an excellent starting point for the original tunes written in response to it by Reverso. One wonders about balance issues a trio with this complement might encounter, but it never seems to be an issue, with Reverso careful to make every note heard.

“La Muse '' opens the album with liquid ostinatos from Woeste and legato melodies traded between Keberly and Courtois. “Obstination '' has a syncopated Iberian cast that recalls the craze for Spanish traditional music among the Impressionists. The solos use distinct registers, with Courtois flying high and Keberle playing resonant pedal tones. Woeste’s solo is a modal post-bop excursion that celebrates the off-kilter rhythms of the piece. Likewise, “Resilience” explores rhythmic variety, with alternations between quick polyrhythms and solos that vary it. A slow tune serves as an overarching motif. There is a bridge where small, repetitive segments take over before a return to the opening material, Keberle playing the main tune in octaves with Courtois.

The “Nocturne” is a venerable form, usually for solo piano. Reverso captures the mood with sculpted delicacy. A repeated tenor note in the piano underscores a chromatic bass-line alongside melancholy chords, as well as corruscating melodies between trombone and cello. Woeste brings out a filigreed soprano register melody in the bridge before returning to harmonies from the opening. Doubling of the melody by Keberle and Courtois gives way to another varied duet between them, culminating in a high trombone cry and a quick outro of repeated passagework. “Ma Jolie” has a bluesy trombone solo that is repeated with the cello playing liberal slides. The central section is led by Woeste, playing a zesty bit of cabaret music. Keberly returns to his solo while Courtois plays a pizzicato bass-line. The piano drops in with tasty harmonic fills. The quick cabaret music returns, and the piano and cello provide a sinuous take on the main tune to close.

“En Avant” deftly channels the texture and melodic approach of Impressionism, a style that, while not encompassing, appeared in Lili’s music. Courtois’s solo features Eastern sliding tone. Gamelan and other non-Western artists fascinated French musicians, notably Debussy, at the 1889 Paris Exhibition, and they continued to incorporate its signatures for decades. Keberle’s solo, on the other hand, is a more raucous affair, and Woeste plays dexterous small cells and a repeated stepwise progression. The close returns to referencing Impressionism and ends with halting utterances.

“Requiem” is a touching memento mori for Lili, with a haunting minor key melody that is deftly varied in its doublings. “Shine” too has a melancholy cast. However, the somber mood doesn’t prevail. “Lili’s Blues” imagines an introduction of Lili to “Le Jazz Hot,” with a plethora of glissandos and rollicking swing.

The recording closes with “Dernier Moteur” (“The Final Action”) in which bucolic riffs and mysterious, angular melodies are played by Woeste, Courtois adds a sumptuous solo, and Keberly provides countermelodies with slow glissandos that distress the crispness of the rest of the proceedings. A denouement is completed surprisingly, with the piano simply stopping to conclude the piece.

Creating “new standards” of early twentieth century music would be a far less imaginative choice than the approach taken on Shooting Star, where Lili Boulanger’s biography is as much an inspiration as her music. Reverso inhabits a musical space both of homage and innovation.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec - Etoiles filantes (Shooting Stars), 1895 litograph, Sheet Size: 16 1/2 x 12 5/8 inches

A song sheet cover from Joubert’s publication of fourteen melodies by Désiré Dihau, this lithograph illustrates Jean Richepin’s lyrics for the song Shooting Stars. Lautrec amusingly portrayed a drunken pair perched on a balcony, overlooking rooftops and chimneys. As the man – a funny caricature of Lautrec’s friend Maurice Guilbert to whom the song is dedicated – looks over his shoulder, his sodden orb reflects the moon and a shooting star. Originally he was to have exclaimed dumbly, “Oh no, look, the sun.” Guilbert appears as a comical character in many of Lautrec’s works. A great fancier of Paris night-spots, he was an agent for Möet & Chandon Champagne and a sometime artist who traveled and caroused with Lautrec.

The effect of night is created on the printing stone by a heavy crachis which envelops the figures in the same dark atmosphere as the sky. The moon and star are simply areas reserved from the ink spatter by applying paper stencils or a masking medium, and the tail of the star was made by scraping the ink away. Lautrec was a master of these techniques which he used in simple black and white lithographs like this one, or in more complex color lithography.

Detail of 'Etoile Filante' (Félix-Maurice Charpentier, 1896), Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen, Denmark by Ministry Via Flickr: A multi- award-winning sculptor 'knighted' as a Chevalier of the Legion D’Honneur in 1892 and known widely for his statues on war memorials after 1918, Charpentier (1858-1924) created a number of versions of this beautiful statue, both in marble and in bronze; approximately life-size, this is the largest of which I'm aware. Entitled 'Etoile Filante' ('Shooting Star') in its native French, the Danish title of this piece, according to the museum's caption plaque, is 'En Sjæl Efter Døden', or 'A Soul After Death'.
