As the electric keys of the “Untitled Dirge” minisuite kicks off A Willed and Conscious Balance, it’s evident that Tomin Perea-Chamblee’s shapeshifting palette expands upon his own woodwind arrangements, transmuting an orchestral symmetry with the record’s ensemble. It’s a record with an ever-evolving framework, conveying the essence of canonical free jazz entities with a set of signifiers that sounds ambivalently modern.
