"... Another wonderful ballad is offered with "Nobody Does It Better" and with "Infinity X" there is certainly a highlight of the record, again enriched with the four strings. The unusual arrangement with this breath of air and freshness is sure to immediately draw in the spell, combined with quite modern elements, until then the last piece of the meadows / meadows of the sky tells and fades away melancholy with ease from this record."

About the album

Inspired by the touches of Americana roots music that inform many of the recordings of Michael Brecker, Charlie Haden and Ornette Coleman, pianist Clay Giberson sought to explore the same in his own compositions on "Pastures." Assembling an all-star group of like-minded, creative musical spirits - Donny McCaslin on saxophone, Matt Wilson on drums, and Drew Gress on bass - they combine their earthy improvisational awarness with a towering sense of song and form, creating a highly listenable collection. Featuring five original compositions and four arrangements of others from C.P.E. Bach to a Shaker hymn, the music evokes that pastoral element, the space that stretches across the American sky. "...his sound is intimate and personal, full of thought-provoking beauty." ALL ABOUT JAZZ.

Mit fünf eigenen Kompositionen und vier Arrangements anderer von C.P.E. Bach bis zu einer Shaker-Hymne, erinnert die Musik an das pastorale Element, den Raum, der über den amerikanischen Himmel reicht. "... sein Klang ist intim und persönlich.
