Nach einer vierjährigen Pause meldet sich Courtney Pine mit einem neuen Studioalbum zurück. Der Titel »Devotion« (zu Deutsch: Hingabe, Treue) ist dabei Programm: Jazzige Improvisationen dominieren beim Flirt des englischen Saxofonstars mit unterschiedlichen Kulturen. In seinen besten Momenten wächst Courtney Pine dabei über sich selbst hinaus: Bei »Bless The Weather« (von Folk-Ass John Martyn) spielt er auf dem gleichen Level wie Jan Garbarek, und beim Engagement des Sitar-Spielers Sheema Mukherjee für »Translusance« kratzt er am Image von John McLaughlins Shakti. Ein rauschendes Comeback…
“The commitment needed to perform jazz goes beyond financial reward or the promise of fame most of the time. When I thought about my motivation, or the reasons for me wanting to be a jazz musician, one word summed it all up and that was devotion.”—Courtney Pine
Courtney Pine, the UK’s leading jazz saxophonist, returns with his ninth studio album, entitled Devotion. Four years in the making, the album features stunning vocal contributions from Carleen Anderson, David McAlmont and Jacqui Dankworth, and follows his critically acclaimed and award winning Back In The Day set (released in the UK in 2000).
Devotion encompasses many styles built on Pine’s trademark jazz foundations, fusing Eastern / Asian influences with a variety of other contemporary global sounds. Known for his virtuosity and fluency on tenor and soprano, the saxman continues to reshape and push the boundaries with this self-produced album, which also features sitar player Sheema Mukhurjee of Trans Global Underground fame. Carleen Anderson of the Young Disciples sings the Joe Sample / Will Jennings composition, “When the World Turns Blue,” and David McAlmont (of the UK pop duo McAlmont & Butler) also weighs in with an evocative interpretation of the John Martyn song “Bless The Weather.”
“This is a record from a UK black musician with Caribbean, African roots and an outlook on his social climate that is reflected in sound,” says Pine. “The highlight for me is the originality in bringing together so many cultures into one positive and unified whole.”

Rezensionen
H. Drüner in Jazzthing 9-10/04: "In seiner scheuklappen- freien Herangehensweise erinnert "Devotion" stark an Branford Marsalis´ Projekt Buckshot LeFongue: Auf einem simplen Thema und Groove-Fundament basierend, sucht Pine solistische Extreme auf, um mit spielerischer Leichtig- keit schließlich im eingängigen Refrain zu münden. Musik mit dem Geist des Alten und der Kraft der Jugend."- Tracklisting
