Known for work that resides at the meeting point of jazz, free improv, and modernist composition, German saxophonist and composer Ingrid Laubrock has put out a number of fine albums in the past two decades. On her excellent 2023 release, The Last Quiet Place, she is joined by violinist Mazz Swift, cellist Tomeka Reid, guitarist Brandon Seabrook, bassist Michael Formanek, and drummer Tom Rainey.
Laubrock’s work has a wide scope: it has ties to Gyorgy Ligeti and Anthony Braxton, but it also can loosely recall 1970s prog, Captain Beefheart’s Trout Mask Replica, and the post-rock that came out of Chicago in the 1990s. This engagingly restless music is often dense and off-kilter, but also has room for more lyrical passages.
