Guardian's jazz album of the month: William Parker's "dynamic fusion of classic and contemporary"

William Parker is a Bronx-born bassist and composer, and in Brooklyn's ShapeShifter Lab in 2017 he performed with his small band In Order To Survive. That show is out now, and Guardian chose it as their jazz album of the month because - it's "pithily inviting, contemporary and always welcome". Listen to a couple of songs at Bandcamp.
