about

In their third studio album, Shadows and Light, 19-piece Sydney ensemble Divergence Jazz Orchestra present a collection of original Australian compositions that explore both the shadows and the light of the human experience.

Compositions from bandleader Jenna Cave, album co-producer and guest soloist Paul Cutlan, and friends/collaborators Miroslav Bukovsky and Andrew Scott, take the listener through moments of darkness, fear, hope, reflection, exuberance, joy and optimism, a meditation on what it is to be living fully. Masterfully captured by engineer Ross A’Hern in early 2022, this stellar recording features exceptional soloists and ensemble players who represent a diverse cross section of the creative music community in Sydney, Australia.
