Abstract improv: duets of violin and sax (sometimes flute) in a free-jazz vein that touches on classical sometimes. Relatively little "extended" playing here, for a directly musical sound with frequent fits of dissonance or free-jazz aggression. Nicely worked interplay. Includes a couple of composition-based pieces at the end. Nice stuff. 1- Fairly aggressive scribblings 2- Airy, slowish. Rather dignified. 3- Slow, toneful start, into long blaring notes and fast sax. Quiet second half 4- Fluttery classical feel, energetic 5- w/chromatic harmonica, an eerie, folky, dissonant midtempo 6- Quick flutters, a jazzy energy. Ends with a slow, mournful composition with Asian overtones (and a blast of noise) 7- Asian Noh-like composition, slow and pensive | ||
