David S. Ware chronology

DAO is an album by American jazz saxophonist David S. Ware recorded in 1995 and released on Homestead. In contrast with most of the quartet's previous albums, they didn't undergo the usual rigorous rehearsals for the recording, getting into the studio the day after the Oblations and Blessings sessions. DAO was the fifth and last recording by the David S. Ware Quartet with drummer Whit Dickey, who would be replaced by Susie Ibarra.[1]

In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states "This is a stunner, and a beautiful example of four musicians listening intently to one another in the process of discovery."[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz says that "DAO is Ware's attempt to create his own A Love Supreme, a connected sequence of highly spiritual themes for what was rapidly becoming a 'classic quartet'."[3]

Personnel

gollark: It works optimally, before you ask.

gollark: More multithreading means more fast, which is why I use an emulator to have my computer run 185 octillion threads at once.

gollark: Just learn... SPIR-V...?

gollark: Why not just move your entire emulator into on-GPU code?

gollark: Anyway, I would recommend against using C++; use some other safer Turing-complete system, like PowerPoint or Magic: The Gathering.
