生于百慕大的Alan Silva,可謂多才多藝者,貝斯、小提、大提樣樣精通,且是紐約自由爵士革命和Free Form Improvisation Ensemble(自由形式即興組合)的主玩,后者與鋼琴手Burton Greene組成于1963年,被公認(rèn)為第一支自然創(chuàng)作組。六十年代Silva縱橫于先鋒爵士樂的前沿,曾與Bill Dixon『1964年著有傳奇的Revolution In Jazz現(xiàn)場(chǎng)系列』、Cecil Taylor、Albert Ayler、Sunny Murray、Sun Ra、Archie Shepp眾腕合作錄音兼演奏。在必須加入到美國(guó)逐漸興起的音樂商業(yè)化之前,Silva為尋找音樂上更為自由開放的土壤而另辟蹊徑。在他登陸歐洲前,為ESP-Disk錄制了最后的專輯《Skillfulless》(1970),其中卓著展現(xiàn)了Silva獨(dú)特的催眠式小提琴拉奏,與穿梭于一個(gè)極端至另一極端間的打擊樂、無稽口技、笛聲、電顫琴、和Dave Burrell宛如雜耍般的鋼琴演繹,編織成為一種不和諧的混合
A consistently strong accompanist and bassist, Alan Silva played on several recordings during the 60s and 70s, working with many top groups and players. Hes a strong soloist, particularly with the bow, and has an assertive stylist. Silva studied piano and violin in his youth, and later attended the New York College of Music. He began playing bass in the early 60s. Silva teamed with Burton Greene in the Free Form Improvisation Ensemble, and participated in the October Revolution in Jazz concert series. He played with Cecil Taylor, Sun Ra, Albert Ayler, Sunny Murray, and Archie Shepp in the late 60s and early 70s, before settling in Europe. Silva formed the Celestrial Communication Orchestra, a group with rotating personnel, and also played with Frank Wright, Bobby Few, and Muhammad Ali (drums). He lived and worked in both Paris and New York during the 70s and 80s, playing and recording with Taylor, Bill Dixon, Andrew Hill, and the Globe Unity Orchestra. He recorded as a leader for BYG and Sun. Silva has no sessions available as a leader, but can be heard on Taylor and Ayler CD reissues.
