Playing a rich flute and singing a bit, husky voiced Alex Hamburger brings in a flexible team of Jose Luiz Martins/p-key, Doug Weiss/b and Chase Kuesel/dr to interpret her own material and some clever Baby Boomer pieces. Of the latter, she’s quite bohemian on the artsy take of The Beatles’ “Across the Universe” and strirring with Weiss on Joni Mitchell’s “Last Chance Lost”. She gives a tribute to the dearly departed pianist Geri Allen, with her rich flute teaming up on a sophisticated read of “Unconditional Love” and goes a bit left of center on Mary Lou Williams’ “What’s Your Story Morning Glory”. Her own “La Deseperacion…” has some fragrant Asian harmonies teamed with poetry, while deeply bowed bass work blends with Hamburger’s dark flue on a fluid “Waking In The City”. Creative currents.
