The work of the Danketsu group has always revolved around ideas of unity, inclusion and equality. Their latest, completely improvised compositions embody these ideals; in the subtlety of each contribution, the gentleness of each performer, the willingness to contribute to something greater than each member on their own. Their music is largely graceful, sublime, almost peaceful, and even the more harrowing moments dissolve into a conclusion that's uplifting.
