"Truly an all-star ensemble, all are leaders of their own projects.
Myra Melford
(piano, compositions) with
Ingrid Laubrock
(saxophone),
Tomeka Reid
(cello),
Mary Halvorson
(guitar),
Lesley Mok
(drums). Hailed by
The New Yorker
as 'a stalwart of the new-jazz movement' and by
Disaster Amnesiac
as 'one of the great post-
Taylor
players,' pianist and composer Myra Melford (Guggenheim Fellow, Alpert Award and Doris Duke Performing Artist Award recipient) is proud to present her newest release
Hear the Light Singing
. According to journalist and critic
Natalie Wiener
,
Hear the Light Singing
is 'a sequel of sorts to [Melford's] 2022 release,
For The Love Of Fire And Water
, featuring a nearly identical all-star cast and the same set of
Cy Twombly
drawings from which the first album drew its name as inspiration. This album is named specifically for Melford's interpretation of the sunlight on the Mediterranean in Gaeta, Italy, where Twombly made those drawings, and the synesthetic sensation it creates.' Joined by saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock, drummer Lesley Mok and MacArthur Fellows Tomeka Reid (cello) and Mary Halvorson (guitar), Melford bounces off the Fire & Water repertoire to create 'another set of extraordinary compositions,' or 'insertions,' writes Wiener, 'that Melford designed to entwine with the original suite, but still stand alone.'"
