Chris Corsano has collaborated with such distinguished musicians as Paul Flaherty, Thurston Moore and Björk developing a percussive language of extraordinary amplitude and infinite resources. He is capable of generating narrative out of permanent ecstasy, leading the eternal cry of sax players and blowers of the 60′s to its logical consequence – a supreme continuous howl, marveling us with the resonances and with all the plastic/acoustic possibilities of the skin on his kit. Capable of interacting in the most disparate creative and vocabular settings (he’s got a wide interest in many musical forms), he never ceases to be profoundly affirmative and imposing of his language, and being an absolute and charismatic virtuoso, he simultaneously is one of the most noble and generous improvisers of the few last decades.
Paul Dunmall has been called “one of the most accomplished reedists on the planet” (Ken Waxman, Jazz Weekly) and he is certainly one of the most fluent and powerful saxophonists playing in Britain today. Over his forty year career he has played with Alice Coltrane, Johnny ‘Guitar’ Watson, Keith Tippett, and Evan Parker amongst many others. Recently he has amazed audiences world wide with his performances in The Profound Sound Trio, with free jazz legends Andrew Cyrille and Henry Grimes.
