I really appreciate that with such a large group of musicians the overall sound and experience of listening is really spacious, never cluttered. The lovely recording helps that a lot, and of course the compositional aspects that make it breathe are superb- it gets more and more fun as I listen again and again. Jasper Skydecker

My favorite Berne band, and one is my favorite bands, period. Essential recording, a crucial piece of a very rich and stunning discography from Snakeoil. dreG
This rich and melodic album comes from a jazz quartet made up of three Chicago musicians and an Amsterdam-based pianist. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 26, 2022

Total mastery of patience, time, and drama create a constantly engaging journey that never gets tiresome or same-y: in fact the harder you listen the better it gets! Somehow Sorey et al. find a way to combine the deep listening and spontaneous interaction of the best jazz with the sense of every tone and sound being worth a universe of listening, which could be equally from Cage and Feldman or the accompaniment to an ancient ritual.
The recording/engineering is absolutely perfect as well. Giles
