This album has active, dynamic and interesting sound. It’s mostly based on
avant-garde jazz, but there’s also heard the elements of other jazz
styles. Bebop, post-bop, hard-bop, cool, contemporary jazz styles, traditional
jazz, swing and many other intonations of various jazz styles are organically
connected with free jazz, creative and the other experimental jazz styles. This
outstanding synthesis between different styles, playing manners, rhythms,
harmonies and scales helps musicians to create original, effective and
attractive sound of this album. Album has firm, strong and solid melodic
pattern, independent and bright rhythmic section and interesting
background. Trumpet and saxophone improvisations have vivacious, energetic,
active and outstanding sound and bright musical language. Wild fast, furious
and rapid passages, arpeggios, sudden and effective glissando, powerful,
intensive and extremely loud blow outs that suddenly turn out to silent,
peaceful and relaxing solos – all these contrasting melodies and colorful
improvisations bring live, energetic, vivacious and striking sound to this album.
