The counterpart to the Dunmall session "Seascapes" recorded at the same Victoria Rooms at the University of Bristol's music department, this quartet sees Dunmall on soprano sax and flute joined by three string players--Benedict Taylor on viola, Ashley John Long on bass, and guitarist Phil Gibbs--for six detailed collective improvisations leaning toward chamber jazz.

The counterpart to the Dunmall session Seascapes recorded at the same Victoria Rooms at the University of Bristol's music department, this quartet sees Dunmall on soprano sax and flute joined by three string players--Benedict Taylor on viola, Ashley John Long on bass, and guitarist Phil Gibbs, for six detailed collective improvisations leaning toward chamber jazz. This is really fine modern work, paying more attention to the dialog and less to idiom, and all four players bring spectacular technique to the session. Taken together Seascapes and Landscapes show two compelling sides to the breadth of Dunmall's interests as an improviser, and the superb fellowship he has with many great players.
