The title All is Sound could not be more apt. With saxophone, cello, piano and flutes, the Cosmic Tones Research Trio has created a truly beautiful album. All Is Sound breaks new ground. At its core, it is healing and meditation music, but the roots of gospel and blues can also be heard... and also a touch of forward-looking spiritual jazz. As sincere a record as you could wish for. Music is indeed the healing power of the universe.
The Cosmic Tones Research Trio, consisting of alto saxophonist and composer Roman Norfleet, cellist and multi-instrumentalist Harlan Silverman and pianist Kennedy Verrett - who also plays a variety of wind instruments - focuses on healing music. In All is Sound, delicate, profound melodies create peaceful, haunting soundscapes that the group develops through their shared background in acoustic ecology, sound meditation, mindfulness and active community engagement.
A remarkable follow-up to Norfleet's first album on Mississippi Records, All is Sound offers an opportunity to engage with songs that serve healing. Following in the footsteps of musicians like Sun Ra, Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders, the Cosmic Tones Research Trio delivers music that is both restorative and sonically rich - each note falling into a perfect place as if by magic.
