Bannar is the second album led by saxophonist Charles Brackeen which was recorded in 1987 and released on the Swedish Silkheart label.[1][2]

Reception

Шаблон:Album ratings The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes ""If Coltrane was the overdetermining presence for most saxophonists of the period, Brackeen seems virtually untouched, working instead on a vein reminiscent of Ornette Coleman (as on the stop-start melodic stutter of "Three Monks Suite" ) and Albert Ayler ("Allah"). He favours a high, slightly pinched tone, his soprano frequently resembles clarinet, and his tenor work is punctuated by Aylerish sallies into the "false" upper register. The "Three Monks Suite" is wholly composed and Brackeen really lets go as a soloist on Bannar only with "Story", a limping melody with enough tightly packed musical information to fuel two superb solos from the horns".[3] In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow states "Intriguing and often intense music that effectively uses simple folk melodies as vehicles for improvising".[4]
