A lead single from the album – “Future Shaman” – and an accompanying video created by Mazurek are available today.

Scattered Amplitudes is the title of the site-specific installation by multidisciplinary international artist Rob Mazurek, which will open on Thursday 8 September at Intermezzo 11 (Milano), in Via Lanzone 11.

The Chicago jazz composer stitches together an album of big, unanswerable questions and gorgeously orchestrated music from a host of local heroes.

Some of the best music by cornetist and composer Rob Mazurek is from his small groups—various configurations of Chicago Underground and of São Paulo Underground (he is from the former city and has lived in the latter)—and it’s feisty and tenacious.

The composer and cornetist explains how the latest album with his Exploding Star Orchestra is an escape from earthbound thinking.
