In Praise of Dreams — Jan Garbarek’s first new album in six years — features two musicians with whom the great Norwegian saxophonist shares some history — American-Armenian violist Kim Kashkashian and African-French drummer Manu Katché. Garbarek, Kashkashian and Katché span a lot of idioms between them, but the music sings with a focussed sense of purpose, in the context that Jan has shaped for it. If dreams are movies for the mind, the album is aptly titled — its atmospheres are evocative and decidedly “filmic.”
