Classical-minded improvisations duets of piano and violin/viola, quite serious in mood. Melford (piano, harmonium) and Kalmanovitch (strings) both play in jazz settings normally, so this is an interesting side experiment for them. Both are into Indian music -- hence some of the titles -- but that's not the dominant influence here. 1- Medium tempo, an exploratory little jumble 2- Delicate, dissonant; builds a strong mood 3- Slow 4- Perky avant-classical, high strung 5- Dramatic swirlings, fast. 6- Quiet, groany 7- Mid/fast 8- Nervous peckings; fast flow later 9- Gentle, slow 10- Fast, stern; very Russian sounding. Nice pounding piano. 11- Calmly mid/fast, romantic 12- Mid/fast, dramatic violin 13- Violin soloing over droney tones (harmonium) 14- A nice little tangle 15- Fairly quiet (prepared piano) 16- Grumbly 17- Quite, sparse 18- Slow 19- Slow harplike fluttering. Quite the classical feel. | ||
