John O'Gallagher currently leads two groups: Axiom (with Tony Malaby, John Hebert and Jeff Williams) and The Open Door Trio (with Johannes Weidenmueller and Jeff Hirshfield). His anterior work with "Axiom" was picked as one of the sixteen top CDs released in 2002 by "All About Jazz". "Line of Sight" is his last work with his quartet.

"John's music on the CD is a very hip classical music, in a way; since the bass and drums are playing more written functions. John and Tony play beautifully; separately, and together. And the whole conception of his composing is very special."

It is, ultimately, this sonic adventure, all about how one listens and responds to (not only) “what” one hears, but also “how” (and from where) what one hears insinuates its own particular immediacy.
There is a kind of athleticism occurring between these two young masters that is both indisputably beautiful, as evidenced by its harmonic flexibility, purity and resilience of pitch and timbre, intellectual probity and emotional fearlessness, and bi-compositionally transcendent, as in how the interweaving ebb and flow of these two music’s enhance and invigorate their respective release and realization.


Nocturnal Prophecy - poem by Hamlet Ayvazian

New object in an old game -
it matters not when omens echo zero thirteen.
The moment we can see it -
the era of reflection -
private doors open,
and damnable souls in agreeable forms, unchanged,
are waiting under the banned lanterns In an ordinary day
for their synchronic evaporation.
Occasion demands
warm hearts
until the hour arrives
for royal minds to conjure with old objects
in a
new game.
