美國中音薩克斯風手Rick Countryman與瑞士鼓手Christian Bucher於2013年在菲律賓相
遇後便開始一起演出與錄音，他們的二重奏專輯「Estuary」榮獲2018金杜菲獎（Gold
Dolphy Award），squidco.com網站並給予了「具創意的演奏，節奏高超的交互競奏，以
一連串美好的概念平衡抒情的進行，儼然是觸及自由爵士深遠境界的絕佳範例」的高度評
價。
Rick Countryman, alto sax, and Christian Bucher, drums, have performed and
recorded together since 2013, first meeting in the Philippines. Their duo
release “Estuary” received the Gold Dolphy 2018 award
(jazzaparis.canalblog.com) and described by squidco.com as “creative playing
and superb rhythmic interplay, balancing lyrical progressions with a
wonderful stream of concepts, this is a great example of the far reach of
free jazz.”
They have released a duo session on Japanese label Chap Chap Record (“
Extremely Live” CPCD-014), and their first release, on French label
Improvising Beings (“Acceptance~Resistance) was a trio session that received

After decades as a baritone saxophone player, Rick made a late-life change to
alto sax, at the urging of bassist, Simon Tan. His first recorded session
with Simon and Christian Bucher, avant garde drummer from Switzerland,
attracted the attention of French label "Improvising Beings" and was released
as "Acceptance – Resistance". The recordings received many positive reviews,
both in the United States and Europe.
While in his early 20s, Rick studied traditional jazz improvisation,
intervallic cycles and concepts, and extended techniques for sax with Bert
Wilson; and recently studied extended techniques for flute with Robert Dick.
His style is heavily influenced by Eric Dolphy, Sonny Simmons and the 60s
Free Jazz movement.
Rick currently has a dozen album releases, on 4 labels across Europe, Asia,
and the United States, including multiple albums with legendary Japanese
improvisational drummer, Sabu Toyozumi. The music continues to receive
positive reviews and airplay. Two recordings were listed in "Gold Dolphy
2018". Rick currently continues his musical pursuit within the Manila scene,
appearing regularly in local jazz festivals and jazz/improvisational venues.

MAKILINC 6 arts festival in the Philippines, and will join Dr. Hartigan again
in October, 2019 in Taiwan, for the Yilan International Art Festival.
