A leader album released in 1978 by Canadian trumpeter Kenny Wheeler, who has participated in numerous ECM recordings including Azimuth. This sextet session features a lineup of core ECM artists: Jan Garbarek (ts, ss), John Abercrombie (g), Dave Holland (b), Jack DeJohnette (dr), and Ralph Towner (g). It is a masterpiece of contemporary jazz rich in lyricism, from the gently drifting, mist-like atmosphere of track A2 to the dynamic development and spiritual ambience of track B1. Original German pressing.
A1: Peace for Five
B1: Sumother Song
