Digital Booklet

"What's most remarkable is how cohesively Nachoff's often multiple personality-like writing ultimately plays out. It's also surprising how much beauty can be found ... Nachoff's detailed arrangements manage to breathe in a jazzcentric way. Magic Numbers could serve as a compelling entry point for fans of contemporary classical music looking for a way into jazz's more open-ended musical aesthetic."
- All About Jazz
Toronto saxophonist-composer Quinsin Nachoff’s Magic Numbers, several years in the making, combines the sax trio tradition of freewheeling improvisation and the discipline of a classical string quartet into an original aesthetic. The arrangements on this 2006 album are often complex, the strings elegantly weaving together the music’s forms and textures in sometimes unexpected ways. Nachoff says he was seeking a diplomatic blend of musical genres and styles which would nevertheless maintain the essence of melody and beauty.
