Album reviews:

'Tune of the day' : Aug 14, 2018
(Dave Foxal - a Jazz Noise - USA)

"Captivating improvisations that are full of tension."
(Frans de Waard - Vital Weekly #1150 - The Netherlands)

“Here the solo piano generates multiple components and allows them to intermingle in a manner that reflects the esthetics of Rafaelov. Some of the pieces possess a gradual, deliberate pace, as in the title track, while many others display a faster tempo. All of them have a common likability. We enjoyed this record.”
(David Keffer - Poison Pie Publishing House - USA)

A side: "The ethereal voice of Friis and her subtle electronics set the atmosphere of this dreamscape, gently supported by minimalist bowing work of Jacobson and the sparse playing of Maniscalco. Slowly Maniscalco with fragmented, rippling gestures and Jacobson with delicate pizzicato and arco work transform the evocative, minimalist interplay into a more playful one, adding more more volume,but keeping it colorful and nuanced until its touching coda."
B side: "The opening, short solo piece is a masterful demonstration of extended breathing techniques, comprised of waves of dense, cyclical eruptions that often sound like a Celtic bagpipes. The second piece is a lyrical 31-minutes improvisation, close in its spirit and sonic territory to the solo projects of British John Surman. Auziņš tells here a complex, multilayered story with commanding elegance and great focus on detail. The last improvisation is the most emotional one despite its flirting with sustained, noisy breathes."
(Eyal Hareuveni - Salt Peanuts - Israel/Norway)

"Dużo ciekawego dzieje się na strunach, także głosowych."
(Andrzej Nowak - Spontaneus Music Tribune - Poland)

"Excellent record"
(Maciej Lewenstein - Polish Jazz Recordings and Beyond - Poland)
