Kelan Cohran Phil - Meditation

Kelan Phil Cohran's Meditation was recorded at Atiba Johnson's Chicago studio in 1996, but has circulated only privately until now, with it's long-awaited official release on Katalyst. And in waiting for it to arrive, we have perhaps been given what we need to appreciate it as it unfolds. The two players on the session are Kelan Phil Cohran (harp, frankiphone, cornet, zither) and Malik Cohran (keyboards, bass, guitar), and they begin the single piece in definition: Malik's synthesizer washes ebb and flow and spread into a ghost chorus that creates an abyss, an infinite; only then does Kelan enter with runs of picked zither, fast and delicate but sure, weaving into that eternal the sound of the human.
