Moving Air (Basho SRCD 14-2) is a new studio album from acclaimed saxophonist and composer Mark Lockheart and is his first solo album for three years. Moving Air is a fascinating and passionate statement featuring Mark's saxophone and bass clarinet playing in a number of instrumental combinations and textures, from a clarinet and drum duet to a jazz quartet and even a sax quintet. Mark’s carefully crafted compositions become vehicles for each musician’s improvisations, always keeping the music fresh and spontaneous. The compositions explore improvisation, texture and grooves and although coming from jazz, the music draws upon a wide range of influences including contemporary classical, folk and world. One critic recently described Mark’s music as:
"a beautiful type of orchestral world jazz".
On Moving Air, Mark plays all the reeds and is joined by drum supremo Martin France, guitarist John Parricelli and bassist Dudley Phillips.

Mark first came to prominence in the mid 80’s with the influential big band Loose Tubes. The formation of the co-led Perfect Houseplants in 1993 saw the emergence of one of Mark’s most important groups, which is still very much developing today. Throughout the 90’s Mark toured extensively with Django Bates Delightful Precipice and the Houseplants as well as recording and touring with jazz, folk and pop artists Prefab Sprout, June Tabor, Stereolab, Jah Wobble, Don Um Romao, Huw Warren and Radiohead. More recently Mark can be seen and heard with Seb Rochfords quartet Polar Bear, who have just been nominated for the Mercury Prize, The Works (Nic France, Neville Malcolm and Patrick Wood) and Disassembler, another new group featuring Seb Rochford, Dudley Phillips and guitarist Trevor Warren. Latter in the year see’s the release of God Only Knows, a new album, performing re-workings of Welsh Hymns with pianist Huw Warren and vocalist Lleuwen Steffan and guitarist Trevor Warren. Mark has also recently been the guest composer/conductor performing his own music with the prestigious Hamburg based NDR Big Band.

Lockheart can be truly proud of this album". *** Jazzwise
"Were Lockheart living in New York, he’d likely be a part of the circle that includes Binney, saxophonist Chris Potter, guitarist Adam Rogers, and bassist Scott Colley. That's recommendation enough for jazz fans outside the UK to step beyond their own defined circles and check out a player as contemporary and significant as any of his American counterparts" AllAboutJazz.com
"Mark Lockheart, leading saxophonist with the jazz-lite F-ire collective, produced his best work on his own release, Moving Air (Basho)". Financial Times
"with a huge stylistic and emotional range , Lockheart's music is contemporary and compelling" Mojo
