Album Notes & Community Reviews
A groundbreaking figure in the avant-garde, trombonist George Lewis explores the outer boundaries of spatial interaction and sustained, non-idiomatic improvisation. Featuring a highly unorthodox ensemble, the album relies on glacial pacing and subtle, abstract electronic textures to create a deeply challenging acoustic environment[cite: 1].
