Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

"The meeting of four of the most experienced musicians in Europe, all of whom have worked with each other in various groups, except that this was the first time that Jorgensmann and Rolin had met. The totally improvised music shows their individual strengths as well as their ability to work together. The first CD contains the results of a studio session that was the first time that Carter, Jorgensmann and Maurer had worked as a trio. On the following day, the quartet played a concert, which can be heard on the third CD. They also made some music, preserved on the second CD, just before the concert. The rest of the second CD contains the results of a later studio duo session by Carter and Rolin. It was not originally intended to issue a 3-CD set, but even though some editing took place in all four groups of recordings, there was still far too much superb music to fit onto just 2 CDs - so be prepared for three hours of excellence."-Emanem
