Steve Lehman Quartet: Manifold

Read "Manifold" reviewed by Stuart Broomer


In just a few years, Steve Lehman has established a remarkable track record as a saxophonist, bandleader and composer. This quartet recording is drawn from performances recorded in 2007 in Coimbra, a small city in central Portugal. Contemporaneous with the quintet recording On Meaning (Pi, 2007), Manifold is a slightly looser ensemble, with more emphasis on ...

Steve Lehman: On Meaning

Read "On Meaning" reviewed by Martin Longley


Even though saxophonist Steve Lehman is uncompromisingly his own composer, an airing of this quintet work can't help but call to mind his forebearers. The prominence of Chris Dingman's vibraphone prompts thoughts of a more wayward version of the Dave Holland Quintet, maybe closer to The Claudia Quintet in its rhythmically angular strikes.

Appena venticinquenne opera con medesime soddisfazioni sia nel campo della musica contemporanea che in ambito jazzistico; ed anche sul versante della musica improvvisata ama sorprendere con continui cambi di direzione. Se nell’ultimo Artificial Light aveva messo in mostra una esplosiva miscela ...
