Product Description

The Guardian, (John L Walters), November 28, 2008

(4/5 stars) Henriksen is a brilliant, versatile improviser...a subtle, sonorous concerto for trumpet and electronics...snatches of vocals add human warmth.

Jazzwise, (Duncan Heining), December 2008 / January 2009

(4/5 stars) Quite lovely...its Henriksen's vocalised trumpet that leaves the dominant impression in one's mind on this fine album. Excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sublime, 25 Dec 2008

By	Kirkus (Hull and proud) - See all my reviews

Arve Henrikensen seems to have the ability to make his trumpet sound like a lost voice in a wilderness in this wonderful set of recordings. The guest inclusion of David Sylvian (ex 'Japan' member) on two of the tracks is why I initially purchased it, as I love all his work, if you know any of Sylvians recent work then you will also like this, it has the same feel. This is not in my view, 'Modern experimental jazz' or any other fancy term someone may wish to give it, its soundscapes that you can dive into and relax, as well as someone trying to push musical boundaries further by experimenting with what their instrument can do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary, 19 Nov 2008

By	Mr. C. Jones "angelsbliss" (London UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Cartography By any definition, this is extraordinary music. Arve Henriksen has singlehandedly created a whole new sound and texture for the trumpet that no-one else even comes close to. This is emotional, compelling, contemplative music of a very special kind being created and played by a master - if he's this good now, it's scary how good he could be when he gets to be Jan Garbarek's age. The comparison with Garbarek is deliberate, in that Garbarek created a new tone and style for the tenor sax the way Henriksen is doing for the trumpet. There's elements of traditional folksong, hints of 'classical music', and dissenters will probably call it 'new age', but this is a truly seminal record. If you're still not sure, check out the final track 'Sorrow and it's opposite', a beautiful trumpet melody played over Jan Bang's samples - exquisite.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent and just beautiful., 28 Oct 2008

By	BLG "BigLankyGeordie" (Geordieland, near England.) - See all my reviews

As I write, this CD isn't yet available in the UK. I bought a copy at the live show at Newcastle Sage Centre. By the way, the concert was breathtakingly good.

If you like your jazz tinged with atmospheric but gentle electronics then this is for you. There are (vague) similarities with Nik Bartsch. Obviously Arve's trumpet work dominates the CD but the electronic atmospherics complement it perfectly. It is the perfect mix of two very different forms.This is a CD I know I will be listening to millions of times long into the future, and already one of my favourite ECM releases.

And if you do get a chance to see Arve and Jan Bang ( his smiling, electronic whizzkid collaborator on this album) then go for it. Deeply powerful music and hugely entertaining. If tonights concert is anything to go by, I hope he produces a live CD of his music because I would love to listen to tonights concert a hundred times over.
