Scott Robinson is an American jazz musician with over 275 album credits to his name and is known for playing rare instruments.Reached on the phone following a gig in Chicago with frequent collaborator Roscoe Mitchell, Robinson talked about his coming performance of works by composers Maria Schneider, Bob Brookemeyer and Thad Jones, with various configurations of the CapU Jazz Ensembles formed of students in Capilano University’s acclaimed music program.
“Called A Year of Sound, I’m playing a few seconds on a different instrument every day and then stringing theme all together at the end into a final piece,” he said. “It could range from a small bell one day to a broken barrel organ the next and I’m quite excited to see what comes out at the end. I expect it will be only about six and a half minutes-long at the end of all that time, but I could record much more than 365 days worth of new sounds with what I have here.
“There was a time when a writer commented that I was putting out over twelve albums a year, and that probably was too low,” he said. “There aren’t all things I’m proud of, as any player knows about those bit parts on some singer’s album or something. But I have been in a prolific period recently with recordings ranging from a solo sax album called Solipsisms for unaccompanied C-melody sax and a live album at the Visions festival in 2018, which I’m very happy with.
