"STEVE COLEMAN & FIVE ELEMENTS: Astronomical/Astrological Music Project"

1 2

Steve Coleman's compositional techniques are largely inspired by those of "classical" composers and include mirrored or inverted melodic ideas, work with intervals, fugues, etc. Still, the saxophonist admits to creating music that was destined more to be felt than to be listened to?Music is not a separate discipline from other activities created by humans. As a form of vibration and interlocking cycles and energy, music can be conceived as a holistic part of the entire vibratory spectrum from micro to macro. And music too has its exoteric and esoteric forms. It was in these areas that many musical masters produced their work. It is our desire to continue this tradition using our own form of musical expression. - SteveColeman NEW STEVE COLEMAN ALBUM " HARVESTING SEMBLANCES AND AFFINITIES" OUT on PI-RECORDS !!

Line Up: Steve Coleman, alto sax Jen Shyu, vocals Jonathan Finlayson, trumpet David Bryant, piano/keyboard Miles Okazaki, guitar
