Product Details
Wilkins came up through the Philadelphia and New York scenes with a voice on the alto that draws from the spiritual jazz tradition, the church, and the avant-garde in equal measure. The suite format here is a deliberate act of faith, asking his collaborators to surrender individual ego to something larger, a concept that puts this release in conversation with the great collective works of Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders, and the AACM.
Alto saxophonist Immanuel Wilkins follows-up his acclaimed debut, Omega, with another striking album featuring his remarkable quartet with pianist Micah Thomas, bassist Daryl Johns, and drummer Kweku Sumbry, plus appearances by flutist Elena Pinderhughes and the Farafina Kan Percussion Ensemble. It consists of an hour-long suite comprised of 7 movements that strive to bring them closer to complete vesselhood by the end, where the music would be entirely improvised and channeled collectively.
