Variations In Dream-Time

Anthony Davis channels the spiritual abstraction of free jazz into synthesizer-driven meditations on India Navigation, the visionary label that bridged avant-garde composition and world music exploration. Variations In Dream-Time unfolds as a series of keyboard excursions—sparse, modal, deeply introspective—where Davis’s touch suggests both Cecil Taylor’s harmonic density and the minimalist patience of Indian classical music. A rare artifact from a catalog that prioritized artistic risk over commercial appeal.
