' '
,: The all-original program on Shawn Maxwell's Music In My Mind :,
: conveys the vision of a composer who's confident in his artistic :
:' vision, and comfortable with the wide array of colors on his ':
,: instrumental palette. :,
: :
:' Maxwell - who plays alto saxophone, clarinet and flute here - ':
,: recruited 11 supporting musicians for his ensemble New Tomorrow. :,
: And on his eighth album, Maxwell's merger of written passages :
:' and improvised segments feels logical and coherent, but not ':
,: overly predictable. He's pulled off a feat that many :,
: 21st-century bandleaders strive to achieve: the creation of :
:' fresh, head-bobbing music that avoids a tiresome groove and ':
,: that gives band members room to soar. :,
: :
:' Throughout the 49-minute program, twists and shifts in time ':
,: signatures elevate this music in a brainy, yet accessible, :,
: manner. The bandleader has surrounded himself with talented :
:' accompanists, and Dee Alexander's wordless vocals on three ':
,: tracks showcase Maxwell's superb skills as an arranger. Two :,
: tracks - "King Bill" and "Glamasue" - appeared on his 2005 :
:' debut, Originals, and are recast here with arrangements that ':
,: reflect Maxwell's maturation as an artist. On "He Gone," :,
: Maxwell's flute, Corey Wilkes' muted trumpet and Matt Nelson's :
:' fusion-flavored work on Fender Rhodes give the track an ':
,: engaging vibe that is retro but not outdated. A few other :,
: tracks, including the seven-minute "Another Monday," feature :
:' distinct sections that make the songs sound like mini-suites. ':
,: In Maxwell's hands, a musical segment might seem abrupt when it :,
: initially arrives, standing in contrast to what preceded it, but :
:' by the song's conclusion, the listener has grasped an overall ':
,: sonic cohesion. It's a feeling that grows with repeated spins of :,
: this excellent album. :
:' ':
