Line 2::: These Are Our Shoes From the Pacific edge of Canada comes a recording by two of the brightest lights on the new music/improv/jazz scene. On this CD they are two musicians playing as one. Hand-in-glove (or rather, foot-in-shoe), Lee and van der Schyff serve up 18 to-the-point improvisations. Spirited, sensitive, imaginative. Selected four times to Coda Magazine's Writers Choice lists! "Ideas flow freely, themes and dialogue are intimately explored and rhythm elements attract most emphasis in an intriguing mix of pointed commentary and sonic colour." -- Geoff Chapman, The Toronto Star " there's an openness and an emotional transparency here that are rare even in improvised music. And, of course, they're both brilliant players." -- Alexander Varty "They work extremely well as a duo ...The opening of the first track contains bizarre sound colours reminiscent of the religious music performed by Tibetan monks. This turns into a kind of improvised Webern with plucky percussion, and then into minimalist jazz." -- Richard Hemmings, Avant "These Are Our Shoes presents 18 short pieces which show the musicians have a broad and effective conception of improvisational vocabulary, grounded in respect for the distinctive characteristics of their instruments." -- Julian Cowley, The Wire 18 tracks in 48:44 minutes. :::>>> Tell A Friend About This CD From Drimala If you like this cd, we think you might also enjoy listening to: Sponge (van der Schyff and Chris Tarry) Points, Snags and Windings (van der Schyff and Butcher) |
