Sam Rivers, in the four movements of the recording, plays four instruments: tenor, soprano, flute, piano

When everything was ready the trio played four tracks in a row, all in one breath recalls Veschi. There was no need to record many takes for each piece. Everything went for the best. The trio played for pieces that Rivers baptized with the evocative titles of Expectation, Vision, Judgement and Hope. There is no doubt The Quest was an album of an absolute vanguard, reflecting the experimentations and the freedom of expression that was swarming among the lofts of New York. It was alive and vital music, spontaneous and sincere, violently hitting the listener and not leaving him or her indifferent.
