Based in the North of England. Ancient Infinity Orchestra is a joyous
large ensemble that has communal music-making at the heart of everything
they do. And that includes the melodies that flow out of their new
album It’s Always About Love which blossom with uplifting improvised
contributions that circle around bandleader Ozzy Moysey’s beautiful
compositions; generous sonic gifts of healing and repair.
The 15-member Spiritual Jazz ensemble has a distinctive line-up: two
double basses, harp, saxophones, clarinets, violin, viola, cello, oboe,
flutes, mandolin, congas, piano, drum kit, with bells, shakers and other
percussion instruments scattered on the floor of live sets and
recording sessions, ready for members to use whenever the spirit takes
them. This orchestration, and the overlap between membership and
friendship, gives Ancient Infinity Orchestra a sound that is at once
expansive and intimate, earthy, and cosmic, constantly shifting yet
grounded in shared intention.
Ancient Infinity Orchestra can be described as melody-driven improvised
music, made by people who are deep into different types of traditional
music, including folk, jazz and classical. “The tunes are a vessel,” he
says, “with everyone doing their thing. It exists so that my friends can
be musically fulfilled.”
“There is a need for love and connectedness. You pour the love you have into the music and people listening can feel it”
