"The brand new album from the extraordinary William Parker Quartet: Sound Unity is comprised of six brand new long-form compositions recorded live to multi-track in Montreal and Vancouver on the group's Summer 2004 tour of Canada. Infectious grooves and luminescent melodies to the fore. Consummately stunning and eternal?". From the liner notes to Sound Unity by William Parker: "All people in the world need the beauty of truth to survive. ... Over the last 600 years we have acquired tons of knowledge and information about everything under the sun, yet we are a stone's throw away from destroying the world in which we live. All information that is acquired in life must transform into wisdom; then into compassion. Without compassion science will never succeed." - Aum Fidelity
