Steve Lehman

Travail, Transformation, and Flow

Travail, Transformation, and Flow is an important new recording from the SteveLehman Octet that marks the first fully realized exploration of spectral harmony in the history of recorded jazz. In spectral music, instrumentalovertones are blended together to create striking new harmonies, whichLehman has astonishingly adapted as a platform for jazz improvisation.The result is an all-encompassing musical universe that advances a singular conception of rhythm, harmony, and improvisational form.
