"Ink Folly, Orchid Gleam is a piece in two movements for alto saxophone, upright bass, and drum set. Each movement was transmuted from a two-part poem of the same name, which was first drafted on a bus to my home of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The pang to return to where nature is abundant wasn't something I expected would be so strong when I moved to New York, but Ink Folly, Orchid Gleam is a product of those emotions. Written with my dear friends Mathias Jensen and Eliza Salem in mind, I knew I wanted the music to have a bombastic, gritty quality, drawing inspiration from recordings such as Henry Grimes's The Call and Don Cherry's Complete Communion. Mathias and Eliza made this music come alive, and I'm excited to see where the future leads us as a trio was recorded in a late-night session at Big Orange Sheep in Brooklyn, with David Turk engineering, then mixed and mastered by Eivind Opsvik at Greenwood Underground. I thank them deeply for their open ears and attention to detail." - David Mirarchi
