The Lights Are Always On is pianist/composer Lynne Arriale's 16th album as leader, and her third recording on Challenge Records International. Lynne's original music is a suite of compositions that reflect the world-wide, life-changing events of the past two years. Several of the pieces are named in honor of heroes around the world, including those who served as caregivers on the front lines of the COVID pandemic and as defenders of democracy.
On this session Lynne is joined by bassist/co-producer Jasper Somsen and drummer E.J. Strickland, both outstanding, in-demand musicians on the international jazz scene. The trio creates the sort of engrossing musical conversation that has become a trademark of Lynne's groups.
Lynne's ten original, highly evocative compositions begin with the persistent Afro-Cuban influenced "March On," a tribute to activists worldwide. "The Lights Are Always On" features a lyrical melody in perpetual motion; the foundation of a thematic arc that soars over the entire piece. It is followed by the jubilant, gospel-influenced "Sisters." Lynne's dedication to Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman, "Honor," is the melding of two engaging melodic ideas; each reinforcing the other. Together they convey the heroic character and unwavering strength of this American patriot. "Loved Ones" expresses joyful appreciation for those who are precious to us. The set continues with "Sounds Like America," where Lynne creates an optimistic melody and solo, culminating in a celebratory chordal finish. "The Notorious RBG," is an exuberant dedication to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, assertively propelled by drummer E.J. Strickland. Following that, Lynne and Jasper deftly navigate the angular harmonic construction of "Into the Breach," Lynne's ominous remembrance of the January 6th Insurrection and the heroes that saved democracy on that day. "Walk in My Shoes," a dedication to civil rights icon John Lewis, reflects the tenacity and strength of this remarkable leader. Lynne begins her solo with two motivic statements, which she skillfully integrates into a cohesive, powerful performance. The album concludes with "Heroes", a heartfelt ballad composed in recognition of those who enlightened a very dark period in our history, and who embody the greatest humanistic virtues of mankind.
The title of the project was inspired by Dr. Prakash Gada, an esophageal and robotic surgeon in Tacoma, Washington. Lynne explained, "This collection was inspired by the doctor and all front-line health care workers. For me, Dr. Gada crystallized the workers' heroism; each day bearing the risk of personal infection, and enduring the emotional toll of staggering caseloads presented by this global crisis."
"The album also expresses my special admiration for the character of Representative John Lewis, Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the patriots of the Capitol Police who stepped into the breach risking their lives to defend our elected representatives and our democracy during the January 6, 2021 Insurrection."
