Tracks list

       Saxophonist and flautist Emma Rawicz was 19 at the time this music was
recorded last year, but it doesn't take more than a few bars of hearing her blow
a tenor saxophone to recognise that she's already the real deal. She started on
tenor at 15, and it's plain to hear how creatively she has absorbed the
influences of legends including Wayne Shorter and Joe Henderson – and
their powerful inheritors too, like Chris Potter and Donny McCaslin.

But what particularly marks the impressive Rawicz out is a robustness of attack
and a confidence about manipulating fast-changing alternative routes in flat-out
improvisation that seem to have been acquired in an astonishingly short time.

On Incantation, Rawicz' self-made and all-original debut album, she's
accompanied by a sharp young band of student alumni, and by the experienced and
stylistically agile guitarist Ant Law. The staccato opener, 'Voodoo', is a
standout for its percussive and tightly serpentine theme, and the fluency with
which Rawicz shifts between tonality and turbulent dissonance in her solo.

Her astute songwriter's ear and a canny producer's instinct surface on the
catchy, Latin-leaning 'Omen' (in the twisting and stretching of expected
resolutions, and her Flora Purim-like vocal harmonies under the horn line),
'Rune' and 'Vera' have Celtic tinges, while 'Incantation' is powered by a
hard-rocking drive that showcases the often elegant Law's more rugged electronic
palette. The compositions occasionally veer toward the postboppishly generic,
but Incantation is a terrific debut nonetheless.
