Miles Davis's best work often created ambiguous zones between passionate expression and cool, reflective distance. When these sessions were recorded in March 1961, he hadn't taken a small group into a recording studio in two years; however, he had been developing new techniques with overdubbing during his orchestral sessions with Gil Evans for Porgy and Bess and Sketches of Spain. Davis decided to apply the technique here as well and invited John Coltrane, who had left the trumpeter's working group a year before, to overdub additional solos. The results include a heightened contrast between the emotional storm of Coltrane's tenor and the measured restraint of the vamping rhythm section, especially on the title tune taken from Disney's Snow White. The gentler, warmer sound of tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley, actually playing his solos with the rhythm section, provides a further study in contrast. Though the ultimate structures may be new, Davis sounds secure and masterful throughout. --Stuart Broomer
