Album Notes & Community Reviews

Directing an immense, multi-cultural fourteen-piece ensemble at the Vision Festival, the renowned bassist merges American free-jazz dynamics with traditional Indian vocal styles and dense global polyrhythms. The deeply spiritual, hour-long suite proves to be an overwhelming display of controlled chaos and cross-cultural unity.
