Vitous opts for the precept of „everyone solos, no one solos” … What emerges is a highly sophisticated series of musical dialogues mediated by Vitous’ extraordinarily agile bass that explore a series of his original compositions, some no more than a melodic fragment spun into new shapes by this talented ensemble.
This is a jewel of a recording that updates and pushes forward the idea of Jazz being centered around "direct conversations and parity between the instruments." The beauty in this music is that you can clearly here the passion that each musician brings to the recording. Miroslav is still the best at Bass bowing because he is not afraid to tap into all musical spectrums to color his sound. I was not familiar with the other musician playing here, but have started exploring their individual works because they play so well in this setting. I hope that this is the first of many recordings that they will do together. This creative and startling beautiful music will open your ears to new possibilities to explore. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
