Paradigm Lost - Adams / Prism Quartet CD

If it is possible for a group with over three decades of pioneering work to reintroduce itself, then thats what "Paradigm Lost" does for the PRISM Quartet. After a string of important and boundary-busting releases on Innova, ECM, and many other labels, this collection firmly establishes PRISMs own XAS label, and offers a kind of State of the Union address for the saxophone quartet. The album title is also well-considered. If there ever was a paradigm for a saxophone quartet, PRISM has long since dispensed with it, through a radical re-examination of what the saxophone can doand who it can do it with. The quartet has worked with choirs, chamber ensembles, jazz bands, and the weird and wild instrumentarium designed by Harry Partch.
