Kenny Wheeler - Deer Wan (1978/2016) [Official Digital Download 24-bit/192kHz]

This 1978 release from Kenny Wheeler features four original extended tunes by the trumpeter backed by an ECM dream team: Jan Garbarek, John Abercrombie, Dave Holland and Jack DeJohnette, with special guest Ralph Towner sitting in on 12-string guitar on one song.

Kenny Wheeler's beautiful sound on trumpet and his wide range are well-displayed on his four compositions, three of which are given performances over ten minutes long. With the assistance of ECM regulars Jan Garbarek (on tenor and soprano), guitarist John Abercrombie, bassist Dave Holland, drummer Jack DeJohnette and (on one song) guitarist Ralph Towner, Wheeler emphasizes lyricism and romantic moods on this fine set of original music.
