It was released by Pi Recordings and was awarded the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Music.

Recording and music

In for a Penny, In for a Pound was composed by Henry Threadgill and recorded by his band, Zooid.[1] The album, which is a two-disc suite,[2] is composed of six tracks. Threadgill composed a concerto-like piece for each of his band members.[3] However, the album includes improvisation.[4] Patrick Jarenwattananon of National Public Radio describes the style of performance as "contrapuntal improvisation within a specific intervallic framework".[5] Threadgill describes the album using the term "epic".[5]

Jose Davila plays trombone and tuba and is joined on the album by guitarist Liberty Ellman, cellist Christopher Hoffman and drummer Elliot Humberto Kavee.[3] Davila is featured on "Tresepic", Kavee is featured on "Ceroepic", Hoffman is featured on "Dosepic", and Ellman is featured on "Unoepic".[5] Threadgill performs alto saxophone, flute and bass flute within each piece.[5]

Release and reception

Шаблон:Album ratings The album was released by Pi Recordings on May 26, 2015.[1] The Wall Street Journal critic Larry Blumenfeld describes the opening piece as "an old song joined in progress".[6] Nate Chinen of The New York Times described the album as brilliant.[2] John Fordham of The Guardian described the work as "welcomingly warm and melodious" despite the "sinewy slipperiness" of the rhythms and tunes.[7] In his review for Down Beat Peter Margasak states, "there are so many fast-moving details and epiphanies at work here that it takes some rigor to hear how it all fits together, even if isolated phrases and sallies are rich in delight."[8]

Awards

The album is regarded as the third by a jazz composer to win the Pulitzer Prize for Music (following Wynton Marsalis's Blood on the Fields in 1997 and Ornette Coleman's Sound Grammar in 2007).[3]
