Faz parte da fornada de Junho da britânica Leo Records. WITHIN é o novo disco (11º) do saxofonista canadiano François Carrier, desta vez em trio com o contrabaixista francês Jean-Jacques Avenel e o baterista originário do Canadá, Michel Lambert, que já vinha do mano-a-mano travado no anterior Kathmandu (FMR Records, 2007). Agora é o espírito de Steve Lacy que se agita com elegância, convocado pelo som personalizado de Carrier (sax alto e soprano) e pelo familiar andamento de mestre Avenel, tantos anos passados ao lado de Lacy. Coisas deste mundo e do outro.
«You can hear François Carrier's joy in this recording, using mouthpiece calls, interrupting a bass passage with a biting phrase, reacting to Avenel's use of the kalimba, or leading the three-way conversations between the musicians with wit and aplomb. His joy is communicative, and spreads to the ensemble sound. Michel Lambert - playing with time, timbre and intensity, never locked in a pattern - pushes the improvisations forward. As for Jean-Jacques Avenel, one would never guess the bass master is a guest here, but instead was always meant to play with Carrier and Lambert, since his huge sound, agile runs and unfailing imagination provide the perfect cement for the trio».
