Big Moon

Description

With over 60 albums to his name and a 44-year career as a jazz drummer and composer, William Hooker created, during the 2020 pandemic, arguably his best album to date, following his critically acclaimed 2019 opus, "Symphony of Flowers." Clocking in at 83 minutes total (depending on the listening format), "Big Moon" is as ambitious as it is innovative. Recognized as one of the most groundbreaking composers and drummers of his generation, Hooker does not disappoint connoisseurs with this new work. Accompanied by a group of dynamic musicians whose lineup varies throughout the piece, Hooker weaves elements of spiritual and avant-garde jazz with tropical rhythms across eleven movements that make up the meditative journey that is "Big Moon"; a work to be savored and contemplated as a whole.
