Terri?Lyne?Carrington當(dāng)今爵士樂界貨真價(jià)實(shí)的女性領(lǐng)軍人物。她是最優(yōu)秀的爵士鼓手之一,又是優(yōu)秀作曲家與制作人。Terri的拿手好戲就是不斷邀請不同音樂領(lǐng)域的優(yōu)秀藝術(shù)家跨界合作,創(chuàng)造出傳統(tǒng)爵士樂所無法達(dá)到的高度和廣度,也贏得了更廣范的觀眾群。她的最新專輯“The?Mosaic?Project”獲得格萊美獎,專輯集結(jié)的“女子爵士大師班”在爵士樂界發(fā)出了女性最大的呼聲。
雖然十歲就嶄露音樂天分,又曾在20年內(nèi)與Dizzy?Gillespie,?Stan?Getz,?Clark?Terry,?Herbie?Hancock,?Wayne?Shorter、Santana等大師合作演出,但是Terri事業(yè)真正的巔峰要數(shù)“The?Mosaic?Project”專輯。這是一張跨流派、跨文化、跨時(shí)代的專輯,21位數(shù)十年來最頂尖的女性爵士樂手在Terri?Lyne?Carrington的悉心經(jīng)營下,炮製了這張緊湊、流暢又甚具創(chuàng)意的跨界爵士唱片。從手法來看,它顯露出新一代“現(xiàn)代創(chuàng)新爵士”的思維,但又不失跨界的旨趣,水準(zhǔn)奇高;從內(nèi)容看,專輯歌曲訴說著歷史與當(dāng)今社會的女性故事,傳達(dá)著不可估量的力量。

Terri Lyne Carrington was a popular side player throughout the 1980s and 90s, and contributed her funky drum style to many different settings. Carrington was a bit of a prodigy, impressing many veteran jazz players while still a child, and was one of the first significant female drummers in jazz. Moving to New York City in the early 80s, she began to get gigs with many local muscians before gaining enough attention to warrant another move to California. It was there she was seen by millions on a nightly basis as a member of the band on the Arsenio Hall Show and worked well with Wayne Shorters late-80s band. But her debut recording as a leader (for Verve Forecast in 1989) was disappointingly lightweight. Into the late 90s, Carrington has continued working steadily and is heard best in funk settings, as exeplified by her work as a side player for Herbie Hancock. At the turn of the century, her second solo album began to take shape and was eventually released as Jazz Is a Spirit in 2002.
