Muhal Richard Abrams/George Lewis/Roscoe Mitchell – Streaming (2005)

Streaming is an album by Muhal Richard Abrams, George Lewis, and Roscoe Mitchell recorded in 2005 and released on the Pi Recordings label in 2006.

Prior to the session, the musicians had worked together since 1971, and had participated in the recording of albums such as Abrams’s Spihumonesty, Mitchell’s Nonaah, and Lewis’s Shadowgraph. The recording came about as a result of the success of the trio’s extended improvisation at the 2003 Venice Biennale.

Abrams described the album as “a vintage collaboration,” and commented: “the respect that transpires between us on the stage, the respect for the improvised space that we use, is special. Of course, they’re virtuoso musicians, but I’m talking about silence and activity, when to play and when not to play, just from instinct and feeling and respect.”

Track listing

"Scrape" - 10:02
"Bound" - 11:02
"Dramaturns" - 18:27
"Soundhear" - 16:36
"Streaming" - 17:34

All compositions by Muhal Richard Abrams, George Lewis and Roscoe Mitchell

Personnel

Muhal Richard Abrams: piano, percussion
George Lewis: trombone, laptop
Roscoe Mitchell: saxophones, percussion
