Album Notes & Community Reviews

Led by virtuoso trumpeter Peter Evans, the highly agile jazz quartet Being & Becoming explores incredibly complex and demanding improvisation. 'Ars Memoria' relies heavily on dizzying compositional structures, frantic group interplay, and moments of extreme dissonance. The record is an intense, highly intellectual display of modern acoustic avant-garde musicianship.
