Following a beautiful and quite daring duo album with trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith (A Cosmic Rhythm With Each Stroke), Vijay Iyer releases an impressively rich record. His first as a sextet, which is actually his usual trio (with Stephan Crump on bass and Tyshawn Sorey on drums), with the addition of Graham Haynes’ trumpet, and Steve Lehman and Mark Shim’s saxophones. A very modern jazz ensemble that launches into a mad and plural swerving action, drawing from both electric Miles from the end of the 60s (Iyer playing the Fender Rhodes - stunning) and European jazz, even slightly world jazz. The bar is set high, with the pianist from New York playing some ambitious compositions. By his sides, his accomplices deliver improvisations that switch between cerebral and sensual, diving head first in their leader’s themes. More than anything, this album confirms the talent of one of the most fascinating pianists of his generation. © MZ/Qobuz
