Wolfgang Muthspiel, Scott Colley, Brian Blade - Dance of the Elders (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Wolfgang Muthspiel and his trio with Scott Colley on bass and Brian Blade on drums reaches a new creative peak on Dance of the Elders - the group's follow-up up to the much lauded Angular Blues, which The Times called a "quietly impressive album". Here Wolfgang's successful stride continues, with his unique compositional signature on the one hand and the particularly vibrant interchanges with his trio colleagues on the other. The guitarist's writing and approach to jazz is heavily folk-induced but equally inspired by classical music - both aspects are presented clearly throughout the album. Brian's floating percussive injections and Scott's nimble counterpoint on bass complement Wolfgang's acoustic and electric playing in fluid interplay over intricate polyrhythms and adventurous harmonic landscapes.
