Our Take
Yazz Ahmed's latest offering, Polyhymnia, is a kaleidoscopic journey through the realms of jazz and Arabic music. With her enchanting trumpet melodies and lush orchestration, Ahmed effortlessly transports listeners to a world of sonic bliss. From the mesmerizing opening track "Ruby Bridges" to the hauntingly beautiful "2857," Polyhymnia is a masterclass in atmospheric storytelling. Ahmed's intricate compositions are brought to life by a stellar cast of musicians, including saxophonist George Crowley and percussionist Corrina Silvester. The album's title track is a standout moment, with its hypnotic rhythms and intoxicating trumpet solos. Ahmed's fearless experimentation with time signatures and modal scales sets Polyhymnia apart from the pack, earning her a well-deserved spot at the forefront of the modern jazz scene. But it's not all serious business with Yazz Ahmed. Tracks like "Jamil Jamal" inject a playful sense of whimsy into the mix, showcasing the artist's ability to balance technical prowess with sheer joy. In conclusion, Polyhymnia is a triumph of musical fusion and innovation. Yazz Ahmed continues to push the boundaries of what jazz can be, creating a work of art that is as complex as it is accessible. Do yourself a favor and let Polyhymnia sweep you off your feet. You won't regret it.
