Album Notes & Community Reviews
Showcasing virtuosic violin within a radical structural context, 'Space Minds, New Worlds, Survival of America' stretches the boundaries of modern creative music. The sprawling title track is a vivid example of spontaneous interplay balancing on the edge of organized composition. It highlights the profound exploratory spirit of the loft jazz scene and the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).
