Admired as a bold saxophonist (and also sometimes guitarist, vocalist, pianist), composer Zoh Amba traces a journey from a difficult Tennessee childhood to musical and spiritual revelation. The remarks are coupled with excerpts from two performances at Roulette: the Bhakti project (2022, with Micah Thomas, piano; Thomas Morgan, bass; Marc Edwards, drums; and Matt Hollenberg, guitar) and Sun Quartet (2024, with Lex Korten, piano; Caroline Morton, bass; and Miguel Marcel Russell, drums). The Quartet emerged from a Roulette commission and is built using graphic scores and variations of devotional hymns.
