Assembled for a visit of Anthony Braxton in Toronto, the Association of Improvising Musicians — Toronto’s AIMToronto Orchestra has continued to evolve and is now releasing its first studio album. The orchestra is a 17-piece of almost exclusively acoustic instruments. The album features seven compositions by some of its members: Justin Haynes, Kyle Brenders, Joe Sorbara, and Germaine Liu. Brenders’ three pieces are long, methodical and often minimal — successful experimentations with the orchestra’s possibilities. Haynes’ two tracks are shorter, more whimsical and twisted, reminiscent of René Lussier’s writing style. A strong record, both in terms of composition and interpretation. Recommended.
