A Brit, a Canadian, and an American walk into a recording studio…except this is
no joke… far from it, it’s the setup for the new album, You Have Options, from
clarinetist François Houle, pianist Alexander Hawkins, and drummer Harris
Eisenstadt. To say this is some serious chemistry and seriously impressive
music is an understatement.

The range of material on display on YHO is staggering. Included are
compositions penned by each of the three musicians involved, as well as pieces
by Steve Lacy, Andrew Hill, and Charles Ives. In the hands of lesser
players/improvisers, the challenge would result in butchery, but these three
brought their A-games and nailed it. I surprised myself by deeply enjoying the
space afforded in no small part by the absence of bass on the recording, an
omission that I typically lament: not a problem here given the superhuman
sensitivity and exemplary musicianship of Eisenstadt, in particular.

Although it’s more undeniable now than ever that You Have Options, I submit the
present release as one of the stronger options. Go get it!
