Portland finest practitioners of Great Black Music offering to the planet! All Is Sound could not be a more apt title for this.

Through saxophone, cello, piano and flutes, The Cosmic Tones Research Trio creates a truly beautiful record.

All Is Sound breaks new ground. At its heart it's healing/meditation music, but the Gospel and Blues roots are in there too...as well as hints of forward looking Spiritual jazz.

As sincere a record as you could ever hope for. Music is indeed the healing force of the universe.

Formed by alto sax player and composer Roman Norfleet, cellist and multi-instrumentalist Harlan Silverman, and pianist Kennedy Verrett_who also plays a wide variety of wind instruments_, The Cosmic Tones Research Trio focuses on healing music.

In All is Sound, delicate, profound melodies create peaceful, immersive soundscapes, which the group develops through their combined background in acoustic ecology, sound meditation, midfulness, and active community involvement.
