A collaboration between three powerful performers/composers, ‘The Other Side’ sees musical styles woven together into a lyrical tapestry of sound, blending improvisation with co-created original compositions. A truly unique ensemble in compositional process and performance style. On 5th June, Quest Ensemble will release their sophomore album ‘The Other Side’. With nods to influences as broad as the contemporary minimalism of John Adams and Steve Reich, the experimental melancholic textures of Radiohead to the progressive jazz precision of Brad Mehldau, ‘The Other Side’ inhabits its own soundworld somewhere in the gaps between chamber, jazz, folk and contemporary classical music. From the emotive ‘Moments’, the elasticated melodies of ‘Pendulum’, to the fluid lines and compelling urgency of ‘The Boatman’ and ‘Pedal Down’, Quest Ensemble’s compositions fuse layered melodies and rhythmic patterns to create contrapuntal webs of sound. The process involves sharing improvised ideas, building up layers of music on each instrument to create a patchwork of musical themes with a rich vein of surging Reichian rhythms underpinning each. Fusing their backgrounds in western classical, Indian classical, jazz and improvisational technique, Filipe Sousa (piano), Tara Franks (cello) and Preetha Narayanan (violin) are all graduates of the Guildhall School of Music Leadership Programme. In May 2014, Quest Ensemble released their much-lauded debut album ‘Footfall’, a collection of part-composed and part-improvised original compositions, steeped in the sense of place that inspired the sound and imagination of their stories. From an ancient leper hospice in Oxford to a stark urban underground rehearsal space, each piece poetically reflects a moment in time, a passing footfall. Since 2009, Quest Ensemble have regularly worked with schools, colleges, youth and community groups across the UK, leading creative music projects with musicians of all ages and backgrounds, transferring their collaborative composition methods to community settings, enabling others to experience their way of working. Most recently, the trio were commissioned to create a show with visual artist Somang Lee that was premiered at Centro Cultural de Belém, Lisbon, Portugal as a part of the Big Bang Festival 2018. Organisations and charities Quest Ensemble have worked with include The Barbican, Aldeburgh Music, Music First, Beita Musica (Palestine), and Sunland Express (Mexico). “Compositionally complex, inventive in technique, and wonderfully ambiguous in tonality, this was a joy to behold” Jazzwize “The interplay of musical lines is dextrous and intriguing” London Jazz News “The sound world is in that intersection between minimalism, post-modernism and jazz with a free flowing between the three… highly effective and affecting” Planet Hugill Artist Quest Ensemble Genre Jazz Label Phantom Limb Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Space Between Moment Pendulum Drops The Other Side The Boatman Land of None Pizz Trance Pedal Down Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jazz Nearly New View Product Quick View Soccer96 Dopamine Electronica | Moshi Moshi | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 3rd April 2024 £16.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Soccer96 Dopamine £16.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Moshi Moshi SKU: nn283806 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 3rd April 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Nina Simone It Is Finished Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 15th July 2016 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nina Simone It Is Finished £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1632 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 15th July 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Frank Cunimondo Introducing Lynn Marino Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 3rd February 2017 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Frank Cunimondo Introducing Lynn Marino £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1821 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 3rd February 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jamie Cullum Interlude Jazz | Universal/Blue Note | 2LP Released 16th February 2015 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jamie Cullum Interlude £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Universal/Blue Note SKU: UNILP70959 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 16th February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Miles Davis Quiet Nights Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 22nd September 2023 £31.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Miles Davis Quiet Nights £31.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2675 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 22nd September 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Alice Coltrane Universal Consciousness Jazz | Superior Viaduct | 1LP Released 11th May 2015 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alice Coltrane Universal Consciousness £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Superior Viaduct SKU: SV070 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 11th May 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Paco De Lucia, Al Di Meola & John McLaughlin The Guitar Trio Jazz | Universal Play 33 1/3 Series | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 30th May 2014 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Paco De Lucia, Al Di Meola & John McLaughlin The Guitar Trio £29.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Universal Play 33 1/3 Series SKU: DZ3096 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 30th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Branford Marsalis Quartet Upward Spiral Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 8th July 2016 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Branford Marsalis Quartet Upward Spiral £24.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1729 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 8th July 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dorothy Ashby The Fantastic Jazz Harp Of Dorothy Ashby Jazz | Spellbound | 1LP Released 6th May 2016 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dorothy Ashby The Fantastic Jazz Harp Of Dorothy Ashby £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Spellbound SKU: SPELL4001LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th May 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Babatunde And Phenomena Levels Of Conciousness Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 7th July 2022 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Babatunde And Phenomena Levels Of Conciousness £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: TR107 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 7th July 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket See more in Jazz Start again
