Arve Henriksen & Terje Isungset: World of glass

More reviews:
Die Musik ist sehr emotional, oft geradezu erstaunlich in der klanglichen Auswirkung, wenn das Volumen des Basses Raum füllend in Vibration zu spüren ist. Die Schläge auf Scherben, die folkloristischen Töne, wie Klage geblasen, die verinnerlichte Klangallgemeinheit - es gibt ungemein viel zu entdecken in dieser fabelhaften "World of Glass".
Empfehlung!



FAZIT: Zwei norwegische Musiker - Percussionist & Trompeter - verwandeln die glitzernde Glaswelt ihrer zerbrechlichen Instrumente in einen kristallklaren Sound, der garantiert einen ehrenvollen Platz in der großen, weiten Welt des anspruchsvollen, minimalistischen Jazz und Ambient erobern wird! Ein Album, welches seiner Ungewöhnlichkeit wegen, sich jeder Punkt-Wertung entzieht
