One of Manfred Eicher’s skills as a producer is to find the right new voices for his ECM label. Last Decade contains song after luminous song in which Lackner postulates a crystalline idea and a rapt mood and Eick deepens both. The title track and “Open Minds Lost” are especially strong examples of this band’s pure, searching lyricism. ECM released some fine albums in 2022, but few are more beautiful.
