Rather than presenting a straight hard-bop blowing date, the album works with changing tempos, layered percussion and a strong sense of colour: a reminder that Shihab had lived through several major phases of modern jazz and absorbed them into a personal style of his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening \u003cem\u003eLillemor\u003c\/em\u003e is especially telling, balancing a firm pulse with flute lines, tempo shifts and a rural, romantic atmosphere. Across the album, Shihab moves between flute, alto and baritone saxophone, backed by Francy Boland on piano, Kenny Clarke on drums, Jimmy Woode on bass, Joe Harris on bongo and Åke Persson on trombone. That lineup gives the record its distinctive blend of elegance and swing, with even the ballad passages kept alive by an undercurrent of rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSummer Dawn\u003c\/em\u003e is also a compact way into Shihab's broader catalogue.

If you know Shihab mainly from big-band work, this is a particularly rewarding small-group showcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Sahib Shihab\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Rearward\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_italy\"\u003eItaly\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bop\"\u003eBop\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/modal\"\u003eModal\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Sahib+Shihab+Lillemor\"\u003eLillemor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Sahib+Shihab+Please+Don't+Leave+Me\"\u003ePlease Don'T Leave Me\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Sahib+Shihab+Waltz+For+Seth\"\u003eWaltz For Seth\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Sahib+Shihab+Campi's+Idea\"\u003eCampi'S Idea\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Sahib+Shihab+Herr+Fixit\"\u003eHerr Fixit\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Rearward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44458032398401,"sku":"5519680","price":58.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/test_85fc1bd3_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1787307018","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/sahib-shihab-summer-dawn-380564","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
