Product description
Every new release from Quinsin Nachoff is a headline event, a radical
combining and recombining of sonic and conceptual innovations,
ever-evolving textures, powerful melodies and rhythms, that always
open up new vistas for exploration while clearly marking the way
back to what has come before. The album Patterns from Nature is an
unashamedly ambitious showcase for his remarkable abilities as a
composer and orchestrator, working within the space where the
heartfelt collaborative improvisation of jazz meets the adventurous
rigor of contemporary music and the depth and complexity of
conceptual art.
As composer, Nachoff created the closely written, intricately detailed
scores for a pair of large-ensemble pieces. As bandleader, he
oversaw the realisation of those scores by a hand-picked team of
remarkable genre-crossing musicians, including pianist Matt
Mitchell, percussionist Satoshi Takeishi, bassist Carlo De Rosa,
clarinetist Francois Houle, trombonist Ryan Keberle, and the
internationally renowned Molinari String Quartet, supported by a
large chamber ensemble conducted by JC Sanford.
As interdisciplinary collaborator, he worked with physicist Dr.
Stephen Morris, whose research into emergent patterns in nature
informed the project's structural concepts, and four filmmakers -
Tina de Groot, Lee Hutzulak, Gita Blak, and Udo Prinsen - originally
conceived alongside them for a multimedia version of the work,
resulting in the titular Patterns from Nature suite of four contrasting
movements that engage the listener at every level.
