Grimal, Alexandra: Refuge <i>[Used Item]</i> (Relative Pitch)

Promo copy with line thru bar code. Recorded using the natural resonance from the base of a stone double spiral staircase in the Castle of Chambord, France, improvising soprano saxophonist Alexandra Grimal explores her own personal language and the affect the ambience brings to her adept playing, through beautifully melodic lines, long arpeggiations, or short bursts of penetrating utterance.
