Magic Numbers CD (2006) (Import) Sacd Hybrid; Canada
 $16.09 
When it works, the effect is electric: the combination of funky drumming, cool strings, and restrained sax blowing on "There & Back" is nothing short of brilliant, and "October" is one of the loveliest and most affecting modern jazz ballads in years. When it doesn't work so well, it sounds like Nachoff is playing more to his colleagues than to his listeners: "Circles & Waves," though aptly titled, comes across as unnecessarily smart-aleck, and the 13-minute-long "Sun-Day" never really gets interesting at all. Instead, he's working a complex but compelling fusion of harmonically complex, densely arranged music that manages to combine all the best energy of funk and hard bop with all the sophistication and intellectual incisiveness of modern classical music. Nor, thankfully, is he ginning up pseudo-intellectual third stream bloviation. This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
Look carefully at the album title and the instrumental lineup (sax, bass, drums plus string quartet), and consider yourself forewarned: saxophonist and composer Quinsin Nachoff is not writing straight-ahead jazz. But at all points on the album, Nachoff's ability to write engagingly and insightfully for strings is jaw-droppingly impressive, and his overall achievement on this album is equally so.
