An exciting new album from one of the UK’s leading exponents of contemporary saxaphone. Welsh performer Lara James commissioned a group of well-known and emerging UK composers to build this programme of contemporary works for saxophone, string quartet and jazz trio, starting with the simple brief of combining jazz concepts, songs and harmonies with classical form and structures This is Signums’ second album with Lara James, following 2009’s Façade(sig 158)- an album of contemporary saxophone works for the classical trio and orchestra: "The saxophone is in, and there’s no better performer than Lara James. From shades of jazz to thrilling expressionism, this recital earns your attention." - Classic FM magazine
