Canadian drummer Ernesto Cervini’s Tetrahedron manages to meld elements of contemporary electronica with references to developments in the six decades since John Coltrane’s “Giant Steps” innovations and Ornette Coleman’s free jazz turned the music in new directions. Cervini enlists electric bassist Rich Brown, the daring New York guitarist Nir Felder and alto saxophonist Luis Deniz. From the album’s one standard, “Softly As In A Morning Sunrise,” through five stirring tunes by Cervini and bassist Brown’s headlong “Forward Motion,” the quartet is driven by the leader’s drumming, which is both sensitive and powerful.
