Description
This first SLAM CD by Canadian duo Glen Hall and Bernie Koenig is a studio recording from August 2013 with eleven tracks of impromptu improvisation and "For George", a Koenig original.
The improvised tracks bear titles taken from typical snippets of overheard conversation as would be heard in a bar or restaurant; the mood of the music reflecting the snatched phrase.
Within the confines of the wind and percussion combination the duo explores a surprising range of textures and composition extended by their choice and range of instruments in different combinations.
Personnel: Glen Hall (soprano and tenor saxophone, flute, bass flute) Bernie Koenig (drums, vibes)
