SAMA is an album by American jazz pianist Matthew Shipp and reedist Sabir Mateen, which was recorded in 2009 and released on the Polish Not Two label. This eight part suite of completely improvised music was the first collaboration between Shipp and Mateen.
Matthew Shipp is an American pianist, composer, and bandleader.
Sabir Mateen is a musician and composer from Philadelphia who plays primarily in the avant-garde jazz idiom. He plays tenor and alto saxophone, B♭ and alto clarinet, and flute.
In a double review for All About Jazz, John Sharpe notes that "Mateen forgoes his regular reed arsenal to concentrate solely on clarinet. Perhaps the chamber instrumentation exerted an influence on both men's thinking as Shipp somewhat reins in his customary hammered repetitions and motifs, emphasizing his brooding romantic side." [1]
All About Jazz is a website established by Michael Ricci in 1995. A volunteer staff publishes news, album reviews, articles, videos, and listings of concerts and other events having to do with jazz. Ricci maintains a related site, Jazz Near You, about local concerts and events.
