Review: On Lovano’s new disc, his first as a leader for ECM, silence abides. Both as concept and as actuality, silence lays at the heart of this eleven song lattice. Even the spacing between the tracks hangs appended, allowing the music to arise and fall, like thoughts and non-thoughts amid meditation. Track 11 is an exception.
