Album Notes & Community Reviews
Marking a tragic milestone for the world-jazz ensemble, this album was released shortly after the death of founding percussionist Collin Walcott in a tour bus accident. The recording captures the quartet's signature blend of acoustic improvisation, Indian classical rhythms, and European chamber aesthetics at a creative peak.
