about

In his tireless ability to rework different languages and trajectories, the Chicagoan pianist and composer Muhal Richard Abrams - founding father of the pivotal Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM) - never set boundaries. Opening with a long percussive moment by Ray Mantilla, "Laja" seems to unfold like a classic Latin-jazz flower, but soon reveals unpredictable aspects, in the lines of the wind instruments or in the hallucination of the vibraphone that seems dazzled by an alien apparition. The most experimental lines of African American creativity coexist in this pyrotechnic octet with the most irresistible rhythms. What emerges is a true masterpiece.
