Oregon continues to move forward creating and evolving as one of America's most important contemporary musical movements. The compositions are original and soar with collective unity, fusing elements of jazz, folk, classical, and world music into a completely original voice. Recorded in a live setting, Chesky Records has captured this event in absolute sonic splendor. “You don't have to go out and get this music; it washes over you and sweeps you up in the elevated creative process that is Oregon. … Oregon is lit up with incandescence on Beyond Words. … Oregon albums, always the same and always different, are among the things in this life of which there cannot be too many.” - Stereophile “These guys have got the real chops. … Because you are in the presence of three guys with ferocious musical talent, every track offers something of value tonally, rhythmically, or compositionally.” - The Tracking Angle |
