Mazurek, Rob Quintet – “Sound Is” – [Delmark]

The album ???Sound Is??? is aptly named because the tracks are not so much tunes but more a wash of sound. Cornet player, keyboardist, and composer Rob Mazurek now lives in Brazil, but was in his native Chicago to record with these excellent musician friends. I was especially impressed by Jason Adasiewicz???s vibraphone ??? he strikes me as a most interesting contemporary player of this instrument.

All cuts are instrumentals except the last short track — a child singing and banging on the piano.
