Kamasi Washington | Heaven and Earth
Young Turks
According to Sonya Alexander: “Tenor saxophonist Kamasi Washington has a bold, fresh sound, like sunlight breaking through the blinds early Sunday morning, as most recently evidenced throughout the Los Angeles native’s new double-album Heaven and Earth, a worthy follow-up to his 2015 magnum opus, the triple-album The Epic.
While The Epic covered a lot of ground and was massive in scope, Heaven and Earth is a more tightly wound mechanism, encapsulating Washington's imagination and emotion in finely packaged ethereal harmonies.”
