Miles Brown - Middle Game (2016)


The name of Miles Brown's album "Middle Game" refers to chess, one of his other passions besides music. In the middle part of a chess game, the players invoke the spirit of improvisation, creativity within a given set of parameters, shifts in energy and momentum, and aesthetic beauty. He believes that these values inspired the musicians in the creation of this music.
