Rich and breathy toned tenor saxist Lena Bloch brings together Russ Lossing/p, Cameron Brown/b and Billy Mintz/dr for seven originals from the saxist or pianist. Her puffy reed broods gorgeously over Lossing’s melancholy ivories on “Mad Mirror” and on his Bill Evansy classicism of “New Home”. The team shifts like sand over Brown’s Middle Eastern pulse of “Promise Of Return” and shows elements of modern classical tones on the prismantic “Mahmoud Darwish”. Abstract and elliptical colors are painted on “Climbing Rose of Lifta” as the team reflects like a pond on “Wintry Mix”. Pastels of sound.
