Press Quotes
Roscoe Mitchell Conversations I revels in its random, extemporaneous intonations, offering proof that ideas Roscoe Mitchell first put forth in the mid-60's are nowhere near exhausted. It's the kind of album that demands an encore, and wouldn't you know there's one coming: Conversations II is due out tomorrow (April 15, 2014).
—S.Victor Aaron, Something Else
Five decades since co-founding the Art Ensemble of Chicago, the pioneering saxophonist offers innovative fusions of composition and improvisation on a rare album for large ensemble.
