Audio Mixer: Sascha von Oertzen. Photographer: Michael Wilson . One of two albums the Brooklyn violinist/composer/bandleader released in 2008, CROSSING THE FIELD defies easy genre placement, thanks to Scheinman's instrumental facility and her exhilarating updating of traditional sounds, ranging from jazz to big band to swing to folk. Songs like "That's Delight" are gallant yet reckless, using violin as a centerpiece for a subtly crashing orchestra of piano, percussion, and mad-dashing rhythms. But then the opener "Born Into This" offers an avant-ambient mood that wouldn't be out of place on a Tortoise record, while tracks like "Ana Eco" are classical wordless ballads that recall the most epic of soundtracks or perhaps just entrance you amidst a solitary moonlit walk. FIELD crosses time periods, styles, and moods, but never ceases to inspire with its eclectic display of talent and inviting extension of boundaries.
