We've just released "With Your Singing", the first single from the upcoming album If There Are Mountains by Dave Douglas and Elan Mehler. Pre-order / listen: [ Ссылка ]

"With Your Singing", composed by Dave Douglas, sets vocalist Dominique Eade with just Simón Willson's bass at first. The arrangement becomes a waltz and gains warmth from the horn section of Douglas and John Gunther on bass clarinet. Douglas and Willson improvise briefly and with tasteful understatement.

Matsuo Bashō (1644-1694), recognized as one of the great haiku masters, wrote the original text:

With your singing make me lonelier than ever
You solitary bird
Cuckoo of the forest
