Into Forever finds acclaimed trumpeter Matthew Halsall and The Gondwana Orchestra expanding their lush jazz sound with soulful depth and lyricism. Recorded between 2013 and 2015 at 80 Hertz studios, the album showcases Halsall’s trademark blend of meditative trumpet melodies, dynamic rhythms, and evocative orchestration, all while drawing in the expressive vocal presence of Josephine Oniyama on select tracks.
This celebrated release on Gondwana Records stands out for its striking emotional contrasts and richly textured arrangements, from vibrant hooks to serene harp passages. With its printed innersleeve featuring lyrics and a palette described as both dramatic and gorgeously atmospheric, Into Forever invites new and longtime listeners to experience a signature moment in contemporary jazz from one of the UK’s most distinctive ensembles.
