Recorded at Okapi Recordings studio in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, by Rogier Hemmes and Sebastian Pappalardo.
"The music heard in "Land Over Water" is totally improvised, with no pre-prepared material. The album opens with "Live at Noorse Kerke", with more than 18 minutes, a theme recorded live at the aforementioned first concert of the trio, in Rotterdam. It all starts with the serene speech of the saxophonist, based on melodic motifs that are repeated with small variations, using multiphonics or rapid changes of octaves on the saxophone; drums, especially cymbals, and van der Weide joining with percussion objects, introducing details, which gradually add thickness until the piece quiets down; everything is metamorphosing, with Costa at the center of what happens, playing multiphonics in the lowest register and the trio experimenting with different textures. After a solo by Govaert, the saxophone reintroduces the initial melodic motif and the trio surrenders to joint improvisation, opening the gas tap until the climax."-Antonio Branco, Jazz.pt

Artist Biographies
• Show Bio for Hugo Costa Hugo Costa is a Portuguese saxophonist, a member of the groups Albatre, and Anticlan. ^ Hide Bio for Hugo Costa • Show Bio for Raoul van der Weide "Raoul van der Weide (Fontenailles / Fr, 1949) played 6 years of classical violin in the Northern Netherlands Youth Orchestra. As a bassist he developed largely autodidactic but also studied classical double bass at John Clayton and Norma Brooks. Contrast point at Guus Janssen. Feel inspired by inspiration and improvisational practice in the free but unstructured views of various musicians like Paul Termos, Guus Janssen, Lennie Tristano, Misha Mengelberg, Jimmy Giuffre, Steve Lacy, Ornette Coleman, Derek Bailey, Charles Mingus and Munir Bashir. As an improviser, the creative focus is on the development possibilities of open personal aesthetics in the broadest sense. The continued deepening of its own sound, intonation and power of expression - of the musical fingerprint - is considered important.Van Raoul van der Weide published the solo CD 'Passages' (GeestGronden # 24 / www.geestgronden.com) at the beginning of 2006, to which De Volkskrant and promising 4 stars discussion was dedicated. Worked together in Bert Koppelaar's POINT OF ORCHESTURE, Paul Termos Trio, Guus Jansen Septet / Octet / Orchestra, Burton Greene Quartet / Trio Spazio Trio (with K. Bauer and Guenther Sommer), Luc Houtkamp Quartet, Ab Baars Sextet, Peter Zegveld projects ('Caspar Rapak' and 'Statua Tumultus'), The Gravitones (Winners Dordtse Jazz Prize 1995), Joost Buis & The Famous Astronotes, Sound-Lee!
