Wabi Sabi by The Tiptons Sax Quartet & Drums
The Tiptons’ 14th recording Wabi Sabi features eleven new compositions for saxophones, voice and drums. Inspired by the Japanese philosophy “Wabi Sabi" which encourages us to “find beauty and take pleasure in the imperfect.”, this powerful collection of new music illustrates beauty in our chaotic world. Exploring modern field hollers, the hum of tires on the Autobahn, tricks for the mind, a yodeling deconstruction, popping funk for December’s doldrums, upbeat grooves for bad people with good intentions, this music delivers pure joy! Wabi Sabi galvanizes your senses and takes you through unforgettable soundscapes.
