The chief attraction on this release by instrumentalist Pat Posey is the tubax, a derivative of the contrabass saxophone invented in 1999 in Munich by builder Benedikt Eppelsheim. The tubax here, apparently a baritone instrument (there is a yet bigger and lower one), is about five feet high, about half the height of the unwieldy contrabass saxophone. Contrabass saxes of any kind are rare (although the cowpunk band Violent Femmes has used one from time to time), and listeners unfamiliar with them are likely to be delighted by the sound right from the beginning of Shelley Washington's Bach-Mingus fusion MO'INGUS (2019). All four performances on the album are interesting. Apart from the tubax novelty factor, Posey shows himself a sensitive Philip Glass player on the Melodies for saxophone (1995), for which the composer left the choice of saxophone up to the performer. Posey has a good grasp of how traditional melodicism was beginning to seep into Glass' musical language at this time. Bach's Suite No. 3 in solo cello, BWV 1009, gets a unique interpretation, partly enforced by the tubax's limitations in getting enough wind to turn corners, so to speak, but Posey makes a virtue out of a limitation. The final Hymn by Posey himself is the only work specifically written for tubax, and it is a riotously enjoyable exploration of the instrument's possibilities. The album is strongly recommended to wind players, who will revel in sounds at the forefront of contemporary acoustic instrumental construction, but anyone may enjoy it.
