"...Enter Rake, a musically adventurous trio based in Ottawa, Canada?s capital of anything but free music. With the unusual instrumentation of two percussionists and a reed player who features bassoon as much as sax, Rake creates rich, widely variegated textures. There is some of the angularity of Braxton, a little of the wry music-play of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, more than a measure of Brötzmann?s Sturm-und-Drang. Mostly, there is conversation ? free and far-ranging. Listen up!"
