Johannes Wallmann, Sharel Cassity, Mitch Shiner, John Christensen, Devin Drobka, Russ Johnson, Arun Luthra Precarious Towers offers a couple of very strong hints right off the bat that Johannes Wallmann is taking a patient look through the canon and history of jazz piano. Wallmann has recorded and released new work as a composer and bandleader at an impressive pace, considering he is also in charge of the jazz program at UW-Madison’s music school. Six of his nine albums came out after he took that job, and across each he’s switched up collaborative lineups and broader musical and thematic approaches. He’s included a lot of excellent Wisconsin musicians among his collaborators, too. On Precarious Towers he records for the first time with a quintet lineup of people he’s played with before but not in this exact configuration—Sharel Cassity on alto sax, Madison’s John Christensen on bass, Milwaukee’s Devin Drobka on drums, and Mitch Shiner, also of Milwaukee on vibraphone. For all that’s new here, there is also a sense that he wants to focus on the fundamentals, roots he’s never exactly departed from but wants to examine in a close, intentional way. It’s a good chance for both Wallmann and his listeners to ask what it all means from today’s fractured perspective.
