About

Our appearance at the Novara Jazz Festival (Italy) will showcase The Justice project. The Justice project represents Lake’s first work centered around his stellar compositions for voice. The selections vary: voices with quintet, a capella with poetry, voices with quintet and poetry, conduction. Among the highlights are Oliver reading his own poetry. The performances vary greatly in mood, sentiment, and timbre. The compositions, the poetry and performances are cries for love, justice, empathy, and progress, for a world in need of the same. This recording is first foray into compositional work for voice from Oliver Lake. While being primarily known as a saxophonist and bandleader, Oliver’s truest gift is as a composer. His interest in recent years has shifted outside the sound of the saxophone – focusing more and more on the ability to harness the voice as an instrument.
