"Wow!" is far too mild of an expletive to use when describing Myra Melford's Snowy Egret album, The Other Side of Air.(Though I am trying to keep this G rated, so it will have to suffice...) If you are a vinyl lover like me, grab it while you can. It IS a limited edition! 😎 Rick Mathis

Total mastery of patience, time, and drama create a constantly engaging journey that never gets tiresome or same-y: in fact the harder you listen the better it gets! Somehow Sorey et al. find a way to combine the deep listening and spontaneous interaction of the best jazz with the sense of every tone and sound being worth a universe of listening, which could be equally from Cage and Feldman or the accompaniment to an ancient ritual.
The recording/engineering is absolutely perfect as well. Giles
