With “Tiresias”, Louie Belogenis (sax), Sunny Murray (drums), and Michael Bisio (bass) look to the implications of Albert Ayler’s recording “Spiritual Unity”. Belogenis says, “Bisio and I listened to that record intensely; Ayler switches back and forth between dusky and bright, or open and more condensed actions, but it always flows. A lot of free music is process, versus classically-structured event-oriented music. To that end, Sunny changes things up immensely all of the time, because he’s an astute listener, prodding and suggesting to the soloist all kinds of ideas – he’s playing with you as much or more than he’s giving you a carpet to play on.” and “Tiresias” follows in that very tradition. “This music is not designed for the tenor player to do an 18 minute “Chasin’ the Trane” – it is chamber music, carefully-sculpted listening environments that are way more interactive than normal tenor trios.”
