Inspired by the music of Jimmy Giuffre, clarinetist James Falzone formed the group Klang in 2006 with local heavyweights Jason Adasiewicz, Jason Roebke and Tim Daisy. Though the ensemble is led by Falzone, the group preforms his music as well as music composed by several of the other group's members. Falzone is involved with several other projects locally and internationally including his own Allos Musica, eclectic Le Bon Vent and Dutch saxophonist Jorrit Dijkstra's Flatlands Collective. Armed with a graduate degree from New England Conservatory's Contemporary Improvisation Department, it is not surprising that Falzone is able to incorporate such potentially disperate musical styles and playing conventions into his music with verve and grace. This album was recorded live by Chris Hutchison at the Luminescence Records Loft Space in Chicago on July 28, 2007 and mastered by Todd Carter on March 14, 2008.
