Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded during the same historic weekend sessions as its companion piece, 'Saturday' documents the reunion of a profoundly influential free-jazz trio. The entirely acoustic, drummerless format allows for hushed, intricately woven improvisations that underscore a near-telepathic musical connection.
