Pastoral Composure CD Cover


 


Pastoral Composure
   Matthew Shipp (piano)
   
Roy Campbell (flugal horn, trumpets)
   William Parker (bass)
   Gerald Cleaver (drums)

The initial release on the Blue Series that came out of Shipp and Parker's 1999 tours.  Blending a beautiful mix of original music with classic standards, the cd is more dominated by Campbell's beautifully haunted playing than Shipp's piano.   Easily the most accessible of Shipp's recordings and a very satisfying one at that.  The performances are very tight, well conceived, and have enough space that you can enjoy the quartet as individual members as well as a group.

Comes highly recommended.
