Alloy is the highly anticipated new release from drummer/composer Tyshawn Sorey, his first as a leader since his Oblique-I topped multiple critics’ polls as one of the best releases of 2011. Named one of “Five Drummers Whose Time Is Now” by The New York Times, Sorey has spent a career confounding those expectations. With Alloy, Sorey brings together formal classical composition and improvisation, staking new musical ground in the process.

"It is intelligent, visceral, melodic and essential".
