Once again rekindling his musical complicity with his familiar partners Thomas Morgan and João Lobo, whom over a decade of collaboration has led to a level of astounding, fluid interplay, Italian pianist Giovanni Guidi, in *A New Day*, brings into play his trio’s fine balance by introducing the lyrical madness of American saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, who is making his grand debut on ECM for the occasion.
Not only does Brandon Lewis’s arrival bring an expanded orchestral palette to the group, but also new idioms and fresh ways of approaching music. The incomparable assurance Lewis demonstrates throughout his saxophone playing leads to other types of collective communication within the ensemble.
