Unassailable 2015 release / composition driven electroacoustic free jazz
Historic reference points: compositionally reminiscent of The Art Ensemble of Chicago and makes a nice companion record to the at the time yet to be released Roscoe Mitchell’s Bells for the South Side. Expressive/spiritual moments, frequently provided by Silva evoke the sensations of three particular very big name compositions: Lonely Woman, Alabama, and Enter, Evening. Take that as the praise intended.
