Glide Praises Mary Halvorson For Balancing Composition With Improvisation

Mary Halvorson’s About Ghosts made it into the Top 5 at NACC Jazz last week and also made its debut on the Top 200 at #176! Thanks to all the stations that have gotten behind the record so far. Please keep spinning About Ghosts and charting it!

The album has been well-received critically. One recent review comes from Glide, which writes that “Halvorson is among the best composers who find a balance between coherent pieces that allow for free improvisation. Not only that, she’s one of the most democratic bandleaders, allowing considerable contributions from each member of Amaryllis, which is a star-studded ensemble.” Read the full review here.
