New Atlantis Records is honored to present Pomegranate, a new offering from trumpeter Stephen Haynes. This quintet is an extension of Haynes lauded trio, Parrhesia, with guitarist Joe Morris and percussionist Warren Smith augmented by bassist William Parker and tuba player Ben Stapp. Pomegranate was conceived as a posthumous dedication to the monumental spirit and influence of trumpeter Bill Dixon, Haynes longtime mentor and collaborator of 40 years.
Completely mesmerizing … both hypnotic and organic. –DownTown Music Gallery
Remarkably sure footed. –Dusty Groove
Haynes (who is also heard on cornet and flugelhorn) and his two colleagues thrive on intellectual abstraction; it isn t the bombastic, hatchet-wielding abstraction of Coltrane circa 1966, but it is abstraction nonetheless. And the threesome s abstraction yields satisfying results. –Rovi
