about

Recorded on February 10th 2005 at Conway Church, Cardiff, this duo project was initiated by pianist Dave Stapleton and saxophonist Deri Roberts. Inspired by their classical backgrounds and by the spacious and spiritual acoustics of the Conway church this recording is a document of 6 improvisations and part-composed pieces that display a new side to the collaborative relationship and chemistry between Roberts and Stapleton. Crossing the boundaries between classical/spiritual music, jazz and contemporary minimalism it’s a very warm, mesmerizing and powerful recording full of seductive melodies and an atmosphere that veers between the scary and the sublime.

The trio get it together with big band goodness and show how well it _just works_, like it was meant to have always been that way. "Untitled#1" is outstanding. "Herne Hill", the muted trumpet through to the finale - wonderful. The rest - well - enjoy it yourself! :) Peter Jones
