Jonathan Crompton

★★★ Intuit NEW LAB. DL Australian alto saxman’s career caught traction in New York working alongside Dave Liebman and Ingrid Laubrock. The latter is one of three tenorists (alongside Patricks Booth and Breiner) whose polyphonics light up Crompton’s taut, barely adorned pieces. All apply extended technique to coax dreamlike figures from its suspenseful title track, switching from light/ dreamy to dark/stormy in a pulse on standout Suite In A Major.
