Jazz Lady Project “Cinema Lovers Il”
Nouvelle cinema jazz created by the ladies of hundred battles
JLP’s new work, which has already evolved and developed to the extent that the preamble “launched by the TV beauty jazz project” does not match the actual situation, is a sequel to the popular previous work “Cinema Lovers” (2017). The concept of putting together an album by changing the composition and arrangement with the performer for each song is not limited to the topic of “female jazz musicians gathered together” by gaining cohesiveness by concluding with the theme of movie music. It is not difficult to imagine that it is a sequel to the previous work because it was able to show the “possibility of expression”, but the higher the hurdle of expectation, the more the second brewing feeling unique to Part 2 can be achieved. When it comes to the wall of whether to dispel it, the girls of the hundred battles can freely interpret it without any pressure, transforming the famous movie music that everyone knows, and making it a listener. It brings a fresh impression. Mariko Endo’s (sax) arrangement “Stain Alive” is completely vector-like with discotics, such as the light intro of conga, the idea of a three-horns’ big band theme, and the factorization of horns. If someone think that it expresses a different sense of dynamism, the size of the swing range from straightforward to irregular techniques such as “Galaxy Express 999” arranged by Yumiko Orishige (p), which has been made into jazz, is also attractive. Whether to listen after watching or to watch after listening ── No, we can listen even if we don’t watch.
