Quiver (Ron Miles album)

Quiver is an album by trumpeter Ron Miles with guitarist Bill Frisell and drummer Brian Blade which was released on the Yellowbird label in 2012.

[1][2] On All About Jazz, Mark F. Turner said "there are more subdued voices who let their music do the talking, as is the case for Ron Miles' Quiver, a project led by the Denver-based trumpeter and his talented cohorts, guitarist Bill Frisell and drummer Brian Blade.

[3] In JazzTimes Jeff Tamarkin wrote "Quiver remains robust and engaging even while the players demonstrate a mutual understanding of the value of breathing room, and if it seems that a trumpet-guitar-drums trio might need to work extra hard to generate sparks, that just happens naturally.

[4] Stereophile's Fred Kaplan observed "This is a trio album as oddball as its name, with Bill Frisell on electric guitar and Brian Blade on drums: no piano, no bass, no other horns.

[6] Radio National's Doug Spencer observed "Ego-free conversations between three humble masters: Quiver is wide open, precisely focused, highly imaginative and very tender".
