Kenneth Jimenez
presents his new work
Sonnet to Silence
on We Jazz Records. Consisting of seven original compositions by Jimenez performed by his quartet including pianist
Angelica Sanchez
, drummer
Gerald Cleaver
, and saxophonist
Hery Paz
,
Sonnet to Silence
echoes the original fire of New York free jazz while stepping into a terrain of its own, boldly forward-thinking. Jimenez, originally from Costa Rica, has a knack at composing pieces that breathe naturally and take fight on the wings provided by the first-rate quartet, joining scene stalwarts and newcomers together as a coherent unit. "Since I was a kid I've had this reoccurring dream of running towards the edge of a mountain and suddenly discovering myself flying down to the valley, feeling weightless and fearless," say Jimenez. "This record is the materialization of that dream. The uncompromising voices in the band and our shared desire to explore the unknown make this music live and breathe. It feels that the possibilities become endless when creating with these master improvisers, and the only thing that matters is to take that initial jump into the abyss." The opening track and first single "Dos Tazas" is a fine example of what the quartet can achieve. It sneaks up on the listener, drawing you in from the first moments, before revealing its melodically adventurous nature in its fullest. As a whole, the album lets the band loose at times, while the music maintains its natural flow. With
Sonnet to Silence
, Kenneth Jimenez establishes himself as a composer and bandleader with remarkably strong presence.
