Welsh harpist
Amanda Whiting
returns on Jazzman Records following on from her successful debut album
After Dark
(JMAN 125CD/LP, 2021). New explorations and global changing events have led Whiting to
Lost in Abstraction
. The
Reynolds
/
Thorne
/Whiting trio is joined again by the mesmerizing lines of flautist
Chip Wickham
, resuming their conversation reminiscent of
Dorothy Ashby
and
Frank Wess
.
Lost in Abstraction
was written during a period of the unknown when Whiting, like most, explored her own sense of self. The world paused, with no timeframe, and the fragility of life was laid bare. A time when humanity was left searching for purpose. Freedom and the dependable structures of familiarity were dissolved in most aspects of life. But music stayed constant. Creativity kept weaving its thread, connecting music and its makers in an indissoluble bond. The album explores the questions and realizations whilst confined. The spiritual findings, the playful curiousness and the reflective moments of loss. Whiting's writing indulges the listener with the spiritual ethereal washes of sound demanded of the harp, whilst also embracing her influences across many genres. Classically trained, her roots are evident. But with an emotionally charged energy and spiritual questioning, a new soundscape of modernity has emerged. So often associated with Ashby and
Coltrane
, the harp finds itself in the hands of a new voice which tells the story of a period of time where the world was unified in reflection. So, what is that feeling when you resonate? When your breath steadies and you let go. Lines no longer restrict or choke. Energies envelop, yet set you free. Are you lost or found? Personnel: Amanda Whiting - harp; Chip Wickham - flute;
Aidan Thorne
- bass;
Jon Reynolds
- drums;
Baldo VerdĂș
- percussion.
