Now available on vinyl for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most in-demand drummers in improvised music - he hascollaborated extensively with the likes of John Zorn, Vijay Iyer, Steve Lehman, Claire Chase, George Lewis, and Roscoe Mitchell, among myriad others - Sorey is also in the vanguard of artists working in that liminal space between spontaneous composition and notated music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Yorker calls Sorey “among the most formidable denizens of [that] inbetween zone,” while The Wall Street Journal has called him “a composer of radical and seemingly boundless ideas.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing Cory Smythe on piano and Chris Tordini on bass, the trio’s first release, ‘Alloy’ (Pi 2014), was described as “shadowy and elegant” by The New York Times. His 2015 release, ‘The Inner Spectrum of Variables’, which also features the same group joined by a string trio, was called “devastatingly gorgeous” by The Chicago Reader and “a genuine masterwork” by Stereogum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new work utilizes a wide array of percussion, along with judicious use of electronics to explore a wider textural soundscape. The result is a far-reaching and intensely beautiful work that daringly blurs the boundaries between composition and improvisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePersonnel: Tyshawn Sorey (drums, percussion), Corey Smythe (piano, toy piano, electronics), Chris Tordini (bass)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP 1: Cascade In Slow Motion \/ Flowers For Prashant \/ Obsidian \/ Algid November (pt.1)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP 2: Algid November (pt.2) \/ Contemplating Tranquility\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PI RECORDINGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39423934300316,"sku":"PI70V","price":29.05,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/TyshawnSorey-Verisimilitude.jpg?v=1615752544","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/tyshawn-sorey-verisimilitude","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
