In Pursuit of Magic is a live album by American jazz saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell with drummer Mike Reed which was recorded in 2013 and released on 482 Music.[1]

Reception[]

In his review for the Chicago Reader, Bill Meyer states, "Mitchell shifts adroitly between several saxophones and flutes, using Reed’s surging tempos, sensitive brushwork, and varying density of attack as a launching pad and backdrop for extraordinarily long, convoluted linear forays full of tension and surprise"[2]
