Jazz / Avant-Garde, Avant-Garde Jazz
Ben Goldberg: Clarinet
Michael Sarin: Drums
John Schott: Guitar
These provocative compositions and improvisations for clarinet, guitar and percussion create a delicate musical universe balancing space and movement, thoughts unimagined, feelings unfelt.
Featuring two of the most creative and original composer- performers on the West Coast: Ben Goldberg (New Klezmer Trio) and John Schott (T.J. Kirk) and the versatile Brooklyn based drummer Mike Sarin (Dave Douglas, Myra Melford), these are improvisations where every note counts. Spare and stark, these introspective pieces touch upon Jewish life and philosophy in a manner both subtle and cruel.
What Comes Before is a subdued and quiet album. Excellent musicians all, Ben Goldberg, John Schott, and Michael Sarin play their music with such restraint, it often hovers right at the edge of whispering and minimal. The trio alternates soft, rolling pieces reminiscent of the quiet moments of John Carter's Castles of Ghana, with cerebral tunes of a nonaligned, staccato action that retain a sparse feel throughout. Overall, it's a very tranquil, uncompromising album. ~ Joslyn Layne, All Music Guide

Clarinetist Ben Goldberg was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, later earning an undergraduate music degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz and a subsequent Master of Arts in Composition from Mills College. A student of Rosario Mazzeo, Steve Lacy and Joe Lovano, Goldberg initially won acclaim as a member of the New Klezmer Trio, debuting in 1991 with Masks and Faces; two years later he won a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to mount a retrospective series spotlighting the music of key American jazz composers including Thelonious Monk and Herbie Nichols, a project on which he collaborated with the likes of Andrew Hill and Bobby Bradford. After teaming with Kenny Wollesen for the 1993 LP The Relative Value of Things, Goldberg resurfaced two years later with another New Klezmer Trio record, Melt Zonk Rewire; with the group Snorkel, he also contributed to 1996's Live at the Elbo Room. In 1998, Goldberg headlined no less than four new recordings -- Eight Phrases for Jefferson Rubin, Twelve Minor, Here by Now and What Comes Before.
