''Equilibrium'' is an album by American jazz pianist Matthew Shipp recorded in 2002 and released on Thirsty Ear. According to Shipp, this fourth Blue Series record is a synthesis of what he learned from all their other albums in the series. He continues exploring beat elements with modern jazz.〔Original liner notes by Matthew Shipp〕 ==Reception== In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states "Shipp, whose restless vision is never clouded by grandiosity or pretense, has become the most important pianist on the scene today. ''Equilibrium'' is soul music for the mind."〔 〕 ''The Penguin Guide to Jazz'' notes that "FLAM never seems fully integrated into music which retains its power through old-fashioned jazz staples such as improvisational interplay and rhythmical momentum."〔 〕 The Pitchfork review by Chris Dahlen claims "With ''Equilibrium'', Shipp has created a puzzle box, full of nuanced performances and cryptic details. It's not his most passionate work, but it's the closest to perfect, so precisely constructed that every note invites attention."〔Dahlen, Chris. (''Equilibrium'' review ) at Pitchfork〕 In his review for ''JazzTimes'', Stuart Nicholsonn states "Part of a work in progress, ''Equilibrium'' moves beyond the so-called 'jazz tradition' to the real jazz tradition, where imagination has free and ideas evolve and develop their own momentum, inspired by the present and future as much (or more) than by the past."〔Nicholson, Stuart. (''Equilibrium'' review ) at ''JazzTimes''〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Equilibrium (Matthew Shipp album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
