Daybreak
   Ian Smith (flugelhorn, trumpet)
   Gail Brand (trombone)
   Oren Marshall (tuba)
   Veryan Weston (chamber organ)
   Derek Bailey (guitar)

Exploring every possible combination of this unusual instrumentation, Smith has produced a highly engaging recording here.  Unconcerned about more traditional group structures, the music on Daybreak wanders where it likes, allowing the musicians to explore their own instruments without constraints of what should or shouldn't be.  Comes highly recommended for an hour of deep soul-cleansing.

"Daybreak is an original and beautiful experience, and something to play someone who thinks they don't like free improvisation." -- Philip Clark, Jazzreview

Total time 70:17 minutes
