Album Notes & Community Reviews

Led by the accomplished French horn player and educator, this Strata-East rarity is an uncompromising journey into dense, highly abstract avant-garde exploration. Fusing chaotic free improvisation with spiritual invocations and unconventional sonic textures, the recording notably features a massive ninety-piece vocal choir and contributions from jazz luminary Max Roach.
