Album Description
Meg Okura's first large chamber ensemble album, showcasing seven cross-cultural compositions, drawing upon her memories from Japan, Jewish faith, and motherhood. “(IMA IMA) will please the most critical listeners… will not leave them feeling indifferent. The ensemble's music is extremely refined- a great synthesis of academic traditions and real improvisational jazz.” – Leonid Ausken, Jazz Quad
