An extended studio improvisation recorded in Berlin-Weissensee, Germany in 2016 from the restrained quartet of Axel Dorner on trumpet, Nuno Torres on alto sax, Alexander Frangenheim on double bass, and Ernesto Rodrigues on viola, using extended techniques in a monumental journey that finds the quartet in a variety of expansive and intriguing dialogs. Dorner is an infrequent yet regular collaborator with the Creative Sources core, and his familiarity with their playing and his compatibility with the kind of improvisation Rodrigues and company work in--subtle, understated, capable of swells but resolving to silence--ensures a fascinating conversation. Each player draws on vast skills, using unique approaches to their instruments, bringing out a sense of enthusiasm less usual with similar configurations; the music is quite energetic at times, never predictable, and forceful even in its quiet passages.
