Meltframe is a solo guitar album of covers from Mary Halvorson, one of the most exciting musicians making jazz today. It's an adventurous record, both in her song choices and her interpretive playing. In her dexterity, Halvorson acts as a bridge between the jazz of the past and the jazz of the future. Featured Tracks: Play Track. Mary Halvorson owns one of the more easily identifiable guitar sounds you will encounter, in any genre. That is partly due to an ingenious effect: a delay pedal that she uses as a startling, mid-note pitch-shifter. But if she didn’t have anything to offer beyond that novelty, her playing wouldn’t sustain the three modern jazz groups she currently heads (a trio, a quintet and a septet), as well as her sought-after work in various other ensembles-including two different bands led by jazz guitar luminary and occasional Tom Waits sideman Marc Ribot.
Mary Halvorson: Meltframe by Dan Bilawsky, published on August 8, 2015. It should come as no shock that Mary Halvorson's first solo guitar album is a mind-bender. In the past, regardless of where she's gone and who she's gone with, Halvorson has managed to surprise by liberally mixing uncommonly aggressive assaults, open-ended exploration(s), and, on occasion, calm(ing) cogitation. Here, standing all by her lonesome, all three of those aspects are in play. What's most shocking about this one is the material that Halvorson uses and the way she positions herself as an antagonist and semi-loyalist while interpreting these pieces

Mary Halvorson: Meltframe by Stefano Merighi, published on October 26, 2015. Meltframe si inserisce in una linea di dischi per chitarra sola che da Derek Bailey arriva a Marc Ribot, passando per Fred Frith. E, come in quei casi, i risultati ci paiono altissimi, raggiunti quasi con un distacco dalla chitarra come mero strumento, con l'intenzione invece di renderla veicolo per una musica anti accademica e anti virtuosa.
Mary Halvorson s Meltframe is the product of three years of gestation and refinement. Initially conceived as a solo guitar album made up of jazz standards, the final document is comprised of modern compositions long admired by Mary, the oldest being Duke Ellington s Solitude. The remainder of the pieces date from the early 1960s, through to Tomas Fujiwara s contemporary When. Overall "Meltframe" is a stunning solo album that you want to keep listening to over and over again because its a record that you find new things to gravitate toward with each listen. 4 people found this helpful.
