A supreme trio in which the sound of the three resonates like breathing.
Holland and Haynes softly intertwine with Metheny's flowing guitar, resulting in a highly polished trio session in which improvisation and composition naturally harmonize.
The three musicians' sounds blend naturally, and a sense of structure can be seen in the improvisation. Metheny expands the space as he weaves the melody, while Holland's bass moves freely and supports. Haynes' drums bounce lightly, allowing the rhythm to breathe. The recording is clear and deep, conveying the placement of each instrument in three dimensions. Tension and release intertwine, creating a new dialogue with each listen. This masterpiece embodies the ideal of the modern jazz trio.
