Russ Johnson Quartet Record Release Show for Reveal on Calligram Records

Russ Johnson - trumpet/compositions
Mark Feldman - violin
Ethan Philion - bass
Tim Daisy - percussion

From the opening intervals of “Skips,” trumpeter and composer Russ Johnson’s Reveal makes good on the promiseinherent in the album’s title. Slyly unveiling interconnected themes and infectious grooves, the chord-less quartet —
an unusual front-line of Johnson’s trumpet and Mark Feldman’s violin with drummer Timothy Daisy and bassist EthanPhilion — revels in a vast palette of sonic combinations and permutations. Along the way Johnson and his associatesnavigate an impressive range of material, from the funky odd-meter groove that suddenly emerges in “Skips” to a
masterful plunger elegy for Jamie Branch (“The Long Branch”) and a synthesis of the structured freedom of the AACM with lush post-Romantic harmonies (“The Slow Reveal”).
