Five Spontaneous Ones

Five Spontaneous Ones documents one such encounter, a trio session with Catalan saxophonist Albert Cirera and British drummer Nicolas Field. Cirera, known for collaborations with Agustí Fernández and Carlos Zingaro, contributes sliding altissimo lines, slap tonguing, and mouthpiece oscillations that stretch the saxophone’s vocabulary. Field, active in projects such as ButtercupMetalPolish, adds assertive rolls, rim pops, and extended percussion displays that range from rattling clatter to intricate paradiddles. Mazur responds with buzzing string pulls, rock‑like twangs, and tremolo pressure, expanding the trio’s sound field with distortion and chromatic tension.

Across the disc, the three musicians build a dialogue that balances density with space. Cirera’s glossolalia and overblown cries are met by Mazur’s string‑shaking intensity, while Field’s percussion alternates between bonding support and eruptive showcases. By the concluding track, the trio achieves a crescendo where bell‑tapping, saxophone squeals, and vibrating strings converge into an architecturally connected narrative. The recording highlights Mazur’s ability to anchor and expand collective improvisation, demonstrating how his instrument can serve as both foundation and provocateur in exploratory settings.
