Vijay Iyer, Linda May Han Oh, and Tyshawn Sorey collaborated on the album “Compassion,” which was released in 2021. This album is the second to feature the trio and showcases their exceptional musical abilities and creative synergy.
The trio’s distinctive qualities were praised by critics, with The New York Times describing their playing as having a “lithe range of motion and resplendent clarity” and a “writhing internal tension”. Their ability to connect with each other almost telepathically adds to the unique balance and dynamic of their music.
“Compassion” is Vijay Iyer’s eighth release as a leader for ECM Records. The album explores fresh territory while also paying homage to influential figures in the jazz world. It includes a powerful interpretation of Stevie Wonder’s “Overjoyed,” chosen as a tribute to the late Chick Corea, and features compositions by avant-garde sage Roscoe Mitchell.
The album’s tracklist includes a variety of compositions, ranging from the pensive title track “Compassion” to the hook-laced highlights “Tempest” and “Ghostrumental.” Several of Iyer’s compositions on the album reference admired figures and painful events, such as anti-apartheid icon Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the victims of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The trio recorded “Compassion” at Oktaven Audio in Mount Vernon, just outside New York City, with the album produced by Vijay Iyer and ECM’s Manfred Eicher. The result is a sonic blend of warmth and impact, creating an ideal atmosphere for appreciating the propulsive interplay between the piano, bass, and drums.
