A blend of Klezmer scales, free jazz, and "world" music (African-based rhythms and hand percussion), led by cello and sax, colored interestingly by a popping electric bass. This is the 4th CD Friedlander has done with this band, and their rapport is excellent. Great stuff; accessible and frequently upbeat. 1- Slow, Klezmer-influenced start, into a charged improv peppered with popping electric bass. 2- "Small" sound, a nice little world-ish groove 3- Midtempo groove with relaxed sax and mildly tense chords 4- Dreamy, swirling, happy 5- Quiet pulsing with clattery percussion 6- Gentle, quiet, and upbeat. Faster chugging rhythm later. 7- Sweetly swirling, mid/fast, quiet start 8- N'Orleans walk, pleasant and slow, quite pretty 9- Mid/fast popping groove, fun. | ||
