The result is music that unfolds with openness and intensity, guided by deep listening and collective improvisation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt the centre of the project is Bartz, one of the most influential voices in modern jazz. A saxophonist whose career spans more than five decades, Bartz emerged performing with Charles Mingus, Max Roach and Art Blakey before joining Miles Davis during the trumpeter’s electrifying early-1970s period. He soon became a defining figure of the spiritual jazz movement through his celebrated NTU Troop recordings, creating a body of work that continues to resonate across generations of musicians and listeners alike. His playing - lyrical, searching and unmistakably soulful - remains one of the most distinctive voices in jazz.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe album also marks the arrival of Your Brother‘s Keeper, a new collective assembled by drummer and producer, Jake Long (Maisha) and rooted and shared in musical dialogue and improvisation. Featuring Ali MacSween (piano, synthesizers and modular FX), Axel Kaner-Lidstrom (trumpet), Twm Dylan (double bass), Tim Doyle (percussion) and Chelsea Carmichael (tenor saxophone), alongside Long on drums, the group reflects a scene that has reshaped the sound of contemporary jazz over the past decade.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brownswood","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":57177710592375,"sku":"RCZ-02622","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/3435\/3129\/files\/5399d989a8fac022060a21ed918a960a.png?v=1781532638","url":"https:\/\/recordcorner.co.uk\/products\/where-rivers-meet","provider":"Record Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
