"Fine lines from the violin combine with delicate touches on piano body and strings. Andharad Davies has a growing reputation as one of the finest instrumentalists on the London scene. She has released discs on Absinth, Creative Sources, Simple Geometry, NEA & Emanem, and is a much sought-after improviser. Copenhagen-based Tisha Mukarji, who here works exclusively on the inside of the piano, released her debut solo on Creative Sources last year. This fine new duo, captured on disc for the first time, were recorded in London in July 2007. A gentle but intense music of great beauty."-Another Timbre
