This album follows up last year's To Fly to Steal, on which Swiss pianist
Courvoisier and her former Nashville violinist husband, Feldman, explored a
delicate soundworld between free improv and contemporary classical music with
the American bass-and-drums pairing of Thomas Morgan and Gerry Hemingway. It
was a testament to the empathy of the two leaders, but this compelling session
shows how far their new partnership with Morgan and Hemingway (a former Anthony
Braxton percussionist) has come. It's full of an ethereal, non‑referential
lyricism of the players' own – an affirmation of the power of pattern and
audibly evolving relationships, even if very little of it resembles songs –
save for Feldman's occasional offhand jazz quotes, like Goodbye Pork Pie Hat
which is slipped into a drifting abstract passage. The title track is built
around a shifting six‑note violin motif, sometimes resolved by delicate
high‑end piano figures, sometimes by rushes of notes. Drum-like piano taps
against busy bass counterpoint turn into horror‑movie crescendos; slack-string
sounds or interior-piano clangs and tappings show how musical free improv can
be, and there's even some coolly jazzy, brushes-driven swing. It's not exactly
party music, but it's contemporary spontaneous playing of the most
authoritative quality.
