From Saxophone & Trombone captures a landmark meeting between two titans of avant-garde jazz—saxophonist Evan Parker and trombonist George Lewis—recorded live in 1980 at the Art Workers' Guild in London. This session finds both artists expanding the vocabulary of their instruments, blending unrestrained improvisation with a remarkable sense of interplay and exploration. The album stands as a pivotal document of the evolving British free improvisation scene, praised for its inventiveness and raw immediacy.
Celebrated by critics as "one of Parker's best recorded statements and one of the best documents of Lewis's radical deconstruction of the trombone," From Saxophone & Trombone is a gripping display of technical prowess and boundary-pushing creativity. The music veers from intricate melodic fragments to strikingly abstract textures, allowing the duo's spontaneous ingenuity to shine through every moment. An essential listen for fans of experimental jazz and those interested in the evolution of improvisational music.
