Review Text
This album gives Russian trumpeter Valery Ponomarev the opportunity to explore space and freedom in a format without piano. He has created arrangements with spontaneous interplay between himself and tenor saxophonist Don Braden, with crafty interludes which take advantage of Martin Zenker's beautiful deep bass sound. This is the recording debut of drummer Jerome Jennings (who is "the next Art Blakey" according to Ponomarev). His 7th CD for Reservoir includes 4 original compositions.
