"In 1994 Joseph Petric approached David Mott and suggested the idea of a unique duo which would explore new compositional, improvisation and artistic terrain. In the baritone saxophone discography, this disc reinforces the well known work of David Mott as he uses an extended registral spectrum, circular breathing, vocal modulation, multiphonics and timbral shifts. Mon has long been active as a composer and performer in an inclusive sonic exploration that allows for a greater range of artistic expressivity. In the accordion discography, this disc establishes Petric as the first accordionist to achieve an inclusive art of performance. This is based on the big picture integration of improvisation, interpretation, extended instrumental technique, vibrato and the introduction of his instruments prototypical accordion sound. Petric's aesthetic allusion to sonic symbolism through references to both vernacular and past musics (semiotic coding), provides the foundation for the enormous range of artistic expressivity on the accordion."
