Tom McCarter Reviewed 2019-12-04 | ||
Reviewed: 2019-12-02 Genre: Classical (X) FCCs: none Review: Who would have guessed that a British male-voice quartet and a Norwegian saxophonist would form a lasting union. It’s now 25 years since the Hilliard Ensemble and soprano saxophonist Garbarek joined forces. This disc is the fruit of their farewell tour. The wide-ranging program follows their established recipe of early, contemporary and improvised music, recorded to achieve heightened resonance, embellished with Garbarek’s poetic sax. There is no pause between tracks.
