High points include the awesome modal masterpiece Modalite Pour Mimi; Chakan and Agnus Dei which feature a cathedral choir, and lesser-known private recordings such as Valerie’s Waltz and Valse a Quatre Temps. We include field recordings made on his trip to Madagascar, including a percussive version of the Lloyd Miller favourite Chant Inca and an unforgettable version of Pharoah Sanders’ cult classic ‘The Creator has a Masterplan’.
All in all this is one of the finest albums we have made to date, and it’s something that we have taken great pride and pleasure to be involved in. Jef Gilson is now 84 years old and wheelchair bound. This album is all about the little-known musical genius, and we have done our very best to represent his life story with the best of his music.

Los puntos álgidos incluyen la impresionante obra maestra modal Modalite Pour Mimi; Chakan y Agnus Dei, que cuentan con un coro catedralicio, y grabaciones privadas menos conocidas como Valerie's Waltz y Valse a Quatre Temps. Incluimos grabaciones de campo realizadas en su viaje a Madagascar, incluida una versión percusiva del favorito de Lloyd Miller, Chant Inca, y una inolvidable versión del clásico de culto de Pharoah Sanders «The Creator has a Masterplan».
En conjunto, éste es uno de los mejores álbumes que hemos hecho hasta la fecha, y es algo en lo que nos hemos sentido muy orgullosos y satisfechos de haber participado». Jef Gilson tiene ahora 84 años y está en silla de ruedas. Este álbum trata de este genio de la música poco conocido, y hemos hecho todo lo posible por representar la historia de su vida con lo mejor de su música.
