Corey Mwamba presents improvised music inspired by resonances and sonic rebounds, from Sheng Jie aka gogoi’s guitar solos recorded in a deserted Beijing during the pandemic, to a no-rules session led by vibraphone player Sergio Armaroli with Martina Brodbeck (cello), Francesca Gemmo (piano) and Fritz Hauser (drums, percussion).

Elsewhere in the show, we hear an extract from the forthcoming album O Life, O Light, Vol. 2 of New York-based saxophonist Zoh Amba who is joined by William Parker on bass and gralla, a traditional Catalan double reed instrument, and Francisco Mela on drums to deliver deeply spiritual free jazz. Plus a track from the reissue of bassist Sahed Sarbib’s Evil Season, a playful and vibrant recording from 1975 where the bass is elevated by Sarbib as a ‘mother instrument’.
