Product Description

Financial Times, (David Honigmann), February 16, 2008

(4 stars) Mazur's list of instruments ranges across the world...Garbarek adds miniature saxophone and flute motifs.


Irish Times, (Ray Comiskey), Februay 29, 2008

Garbarek is in fine form...A master colourist, Mazur can call on a range of moods...delicacy, humour, and sheer visceral energy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Same old same old stuff, 16 Feb 2008
By D. Eves "davideves" - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I very much enjoy the Jan Garbarek and Marilyn Mazur sound - it fits in well with the crystal and resonant sound heard on so many old ECM albums. That's good but it also means that this album sounds no different from any other Jan Garbarek CD of the past decade. It would be interesting for Manfred Eicher to force some of his musicians to think outside of their rather limited sound and style as the result would potentially be exhilerating. But for now if this is the first ECM album you've heard then go ahead and enjoy. If it's the 300th then you're unlikely to notice any difference with 100 others. For me I have a feeling this will just go in the pile of rarely used CDs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gee, It All Sounds the Same to Me, 13 Mar 2008
By I. Goldkind (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Precisely reflects the state of the ears that are listening and is usually a cover for lack of discernment. This isn't toe tapping music for certain but if you're interested in haunting, percussive explorations threaded together by Garbarek's disintinctive soprano, then this is the album for you. If you like Manu Katche, you'll like this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad at all, 26 May 2008
By J. Alan "JohnA" (Greater London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of Garbarek's best, it doesn't age with repeated listening.
Very atmospheric with the various cymbals, gongs and utensils.

Marilyn is a good choice of companion for such a project.
Well recorded too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quite a difference
One has to say, Mazur certainly dominates here. One warning to Garbarek fans new to this album would be that it does *not* contain an expected gently flowing, epic and folky... Read more
