“Bring Our Light To Every Corner”, the ninth album from Adam Scrimshire is a project that was ten years in the making. Scrimshire’s recordings have always been crafted in his emotions. The ability to transcribe those feelings into emotive compositions has been a strength of his and a treat to the listener. “Asleep, A Dream” encapsulates a spiritual jazz vibe with a touch of folk. The tune gets a lift from Amanda Whiting’s blissful harp and Dwight Trible’s wordless phrasings. Idris Rahman’s flute makes its presence felt on a number of recordings. “With Our Eternal Hope & Joy” features frequent contributor Faye Houston on vocals and drummer Chris Bott. The track opens with a stirring piano melody from Jessica Lauren. In addition, Rahman’s fiery flute and sax plus lush vocal harmonies take the track to another level. After a fever pitch, the band simmers down just a bit for poet Joshua Idehen to deliver positive verses. “Awake, A Dream” appears in two takes. An expansive fifteen journey is the finale of a brilliant recording. This is arguably Scrimshire’s best recording to date.
