{"product_id":"break-a-vase","title":"BREAK A VASE","description":"After the album \"Togetherness Music\", British pianist and composer  Alexander Hawkins presents another musical panorama: An ensemble  in which his trio with bassist Neil Charles and drummer Stephen  Davis meets saxophonist and clarinetist Shabaka Hutchings, guitarist  Otto Fischer, and drummer Richard Ol�t�nd� Baker. For anybody  who has followed Hawkins's work since his emergence on the British  improvised music scene in the mid 2000's this is a fresh band full of  familiar musicians with whom Hawkins has played in a wide variety of  formations. The new pieces \"Break a Vase\" presents emerge from  Hawkins' own imagination, but they also capture the thrust of energy  in collaborating with these outstanding musicians.  \"Hawkins gives one of his most complete performances to date,\" writes  Kevin Le Gendre in the liner notes. \"Nothing is perhaps more majestic  than the title track, which comes from Derek Walcott's acceptance  speech for the Nobel Prize. 'Break a Vase, and the love that re -  assembles the fragments is stronger than that love which took it's  symmetry for granted when it was whole.' Enjoy then all these wily  bits and pieces that come together in the kind of daring, courageous  construction that is made to last.\"","brand":"INTAKT RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":52023082025240,"sku":"7640120193737","price":18.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4041093-2780616.jpg?v=1777837572","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/break-a-vase","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
