Movements In Colour - Andy Sheppard - ECM2062

Product Description:
The music on Movements in Colour is an ambitious, but utterly lyrical blend of Latin, Middle Eastern, and post-bop, and it is realized by musicians such as jazz guitarist John Parricelli (who plays acoustically here) and tabla player Kuljit Bhamra — members of Sheppard's regular quartet — guitarist and electronic musician Eivind Aarset, and double bassist Arild Andersen, who also plays some electronics. Ultimately, Movements in Colour is a wonderfully breezy, airy, but very sophisticated recording that places an unusual instrument (the tabla) at the center of a jazz group that defies expectations and delivers something new yet familiar; this set is both well-conceived, and more importantly, well-executed.
