For its premiere performance at our festival the quintet members announced that they will “explore the mutual communication of low voices and also hit some higher registers, too.” The five musicians achieved the coexistence of very low tones and vibrations with a distinctly focused and harmonious performance. The compositions start as sketches with a barely recognizable motif of one of the musicians, which others then skillfully take over, and from the initial hint compose suggestive buzzing songs with a lot of lyricism, dreaminess and romance. “We haven’t seen anything like this before, especially when Colonna and Cogliandro played; their instruments were tense accompaniment in some places, and elsewhere they deepened the hustle and bustle of big double basses,” Andrej Pervanje wrote in a concert review for Radio Študent. Darinko Kores Jacks summed up the performance in Večer newspaper: “The band’s of increasingly complex and intertwined interactions between sound lines gradually leads to ecstatic climaxes that sound almost ritualistic.” The album, which is part of our discographic series Live at Jazz Cerkno, is available online at our bandcamp.
