The highly-anticipated debut album, quot;Simple Beautyquot;, from New York City based saxophonist Adam Larson is set to release mid-January 2013. The ten original compositions featured (eight to Larson's credit), comprise the foundation of the Adam Larson Quintet repertoire; having been developed, re-vamp and nit-picked during his time as an undergraduate student at The Manhattan School of Music. Embracing a quot;chemistry above allquot; attitude, Adam enlisted his most trusted musical sidemen for the undertaking of recording this set of music. quot;it's something I thought about a lot when preparing to record this album. I've been very fortunate to work with and develop relationships with several amazing musicians over the past few years. I picked the individuals who I knew were deeply invested in the music, the bands vision, and were right for the jobquot;, says Larson. Those right for this project were pianist Can Olgun, bassist Raviv Markovitz, drummers Jason Burger and Guilhem Flouzat, and Larson's most like-minded musical cohort; guitarist Nils Weinhold. Intertwining a number of musical influences, the material on this record reveals Larson's intrigue for use of compositional devices such as mixed-meter and elongated song form. quot;Like many artists, I want my music to connect with as many people as I can. I'm hopeful that the music on this album will have a little something for everyone-that being said, I don't feel we sacrificed anything artistically speaking, in the process of attempting to appeal to a larger number of people; music is music and I'm excited to share this music, and these fantastic musicians with the world!quot;.
