Anna Webber's Shimmer Wince

Flutist, saxophonist and composer Anna Webber is a central figure in the New York jazz scene and is considered one of the most innovative musicians of the younger generation with a surprising range of activities. Her work has been hailed as "visionary and compelling" at the intersection of avant-garde jazz and new classical music, and her albums to date have ranked at the top of various jazz album best lists (including the NPR Jazz Critics Poll and the New York Times). In 2020, she was voted Best Rising Star Flutist in the Downbeat Critic's Poll, and in the 2023 Poll she is listed in five different categories. In 2021, she was named a Berlin Prize Fellow, and each of her records features musicians at the forefront of the intersecting worlds of improvised music and contemporary classical composition. With Adam O'Farrill, Mariel Roberts, Elias Stemeseder and Lesley Mok, Anna Webber's new band Shimmer Wince brings together the most innovative voices on the American jazz scene. The music for this ensemble explores the applications of Just Intonation in a jazz/improvisation context, including its intersections with rhythm and groove. Just Intonation or JI is an ancient tuning system based on the natural overtones and resonances of notes. The result is a breathtaking album.
