Linda Oh Trio-Entry [Linda Oh Music]
|
Linda Oh, born in
Malaysia, raised in Australia,
and currently living
in New York, is a 25-year-old acoustic bassist
with remarkable gifts. Entry, her debut, is a
resounding statement of this fact, demonstrating
conceptual maturity and prodigious
instrumental strength. The trio setting suits
her, as do her sidemen, trumpeter Ambrose
Akinmusire and drummer Obed Calvaire.
In this intimate ensemble, Oh reveals a conversational
compositional voice and a finely
tuned brand of collective improvisation that
is spontaneous, but never muddled.
