Abstract improvisation, from British trombonist Paul Rutherford's visit to Chicago in 2002.
Tracks 2, 3, 4 put Rutherford in a septet with other experienced improvisers, some from Chicago's scene and a few familiar visitors (Mats Gustafsson on sax, for one).
2*- has a calm, exploratory feel without being quiet or static. Nicely moving stuff. Fast and jumbly near the end.
3*- Lots of variety. Fast and scattery early on, changing to long swooping tones. Middle part includes wacky industrial-electronic sounds (probably Fred Lonberg-Holm on cello).
4- Quiet, almost chamber-music vein, with loud patches
Track 1 appears to be a Rutherford solo concert, stitched into a single 31-minute piece. Snippets of it are engaging, but don't play the whole 31 minutes -- it gets tiresome. Part of the problem is the lack of agility that a trombone provides.
Silences provide good start/stop points at -9:00, -7:00 and -2:00.
