On this maiden recording, Chicago-based bassist
Jason Roebke
leads a new quartet, featuring his original compositions and a stellar lineup. The music, which was brilliantly recorded at
Steve Albini
's legendary Electrical Audio and expertly mixed and mastered by
Alex Inglizian
at Experimental Sound Studio, is performed by veteran reed player
Edward Wilkerson Jr.
, whose own bands
Eight Bold Souls
and
Shadow Vignettes
were among the great ensembles of eighties/nineties Chicago, extending the AACM tradition and spotlighting Wilkerson's sensitive improvising. Here, wielding tenor saxophone and alto clarinet, Wilkerson is a commanding -- but also supremely collaborative -- voice, joining the younger pianist
Mabel Kwan
and drummer
Marcus Evans
. Roebke's scores are rich and flexible, but they concentrate on exploring multifarious ways of stopping, something that's been a feature of the bassist's own improvisation for decades. Investigating the interrelationships between flow and cessation, the quartet is at once organic and halting, Roebke and Evans playing together with great assurance, but occasional interruptions of metronomes or Roebke's lo-fi cassette recordings pushing against the fluidity and expressiveness in revelatory ways. Roebke's own bass playing has been a feature of scads of ensembles, both working and ad hoc, including
Jason Stein Trio
,
Jeb Bishop Trio
,
James Falzone
's
KLANG
,
Jorrit Dijkstra's Flatlands Collective
,
Pillow Circles
,
The Whammies
,
Keefe Jackson
, and
Mike Reed's People, Places, and Things
. The CD package for
Four Spheres
comes adorned with a beautiful painting by
Rebecca Shore
.
