about

The art of music has the ability to express beauty, pain, loneliness, love, loss, peace, and hope. These expressions are brought to life through the composer's inspiration to put his or her experiences into sound. Within the creation of music there are no boundaries except for those placed on oneself. "Motion," the sixth album from Ryan Meisel, clearly displays that he places no boundaries on himself as a composer. He makes use of all sources of inspiration, including Lester Young, Dexter Gordon, James Carter, Ken Vandermark, Fred Anderson, Von Freeman and Richard Davis.

"Motion" extraordinarily displays Meisel's passion as a composer, arranger, bandleader, saxophonist, and improviser. This album embodies the spirit and history of jazz ranging from the New Orleans style to the avant-garde, fresh arrangements of old standards and soulful original compositions. Open your heart and your ears to the music. Let go of boundaries and expectations while listening to this album and you will be amazed. Beyond category, beyond style, beyond definition. Let the Ryan Meisel Collective take you on a musical journey that you've never experienced before.
