REVIEWS
IKB is back in the full glory. This is a live recording by Miguel Azguime in June 2021 at O'Culto da Ajuda, Lisbon. The band plays a single 53 minutes long track, entitled "Titanus giganteus". The whole cream of the cream of the Portuguese scene is here. The composition starts quietly in the minimal fashion and augments with the course of time. In the first 10 minutes strings, percussion and electronics play the leading role, then we start to hear all instruments, in particular Luís Vicente's trumpet, Bruno Parrinha's clarinets, José Lancastre's alto, and so on. In the 26 minute wind instrument take over in a short, but explosive collective improvisation, and the initial minimalist mood returns. It augments in a joint final of both strings and winds, to cease down again at the end. Beautiful music. Maciej Lewenstein

After the acclaimed first recording of “Vento” by the trio José Lencastre, Hernâni Faustino and Vasco Furtado, now comes a new chapter with “Forces in Motion". José Lencastre
Lencastre overdubbed multiple alto and tenor sax lines, and enhanced his music through judicious use of echo, reverb and EQ, and interacting with live electronics in real-time. José Lencastre
A sonic exploration of the life and thoughts of trees, this is brave and exploratory contemporary classical music and avant-jazz. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 6, 2022
