<p dir="ltr"><b><i>You Sing The Song</i></b> is a live in-studio performance of improvisations for saxophone and drums/percussion. The performance aims to reflect the musicians' research in the traditions of American free-jazz and European free-improvisation, and specifically to contribute to the practice of saxophone and percussion duets that emerged in the late work of John Coltrane (among other artists). The music explores delicate micro-textures and large scale expressions of energy and emotion. The recording is produced in a "documentarian" style: the tracks are un-edited and comprise the totality of the session, which unfolded naturally in two 20-minute parts.<br><br>"... intimate, melodious, lyrical, gentle and elegant. A more than welcome change in this harsh world" – <i>The Free Jazz Collective: Reviews of Free Jazz and Improvised Music</i><br><br>Recorded by Dylan van der Schyff, June 7th, 2023 at the Brian Brown Studio, University of Melbourne Southbank, Australia<br><br>Greg Sher – alto saxophone<br>Dylan van der Schyff – drums, bells, bowls etc</p>
