The first-time teaming of Poland’s dynamic Marcin Wasilewski Trio and big-toned US tenorist Joe Lovano brings forth special music of concentrated, deep feeling, in which lyricism and strength seem ideally balanced. The alliance plays four new tunes by Marcin and one by Joe, as well as Carla Bley’s classic “Vashkar” plus collective improvisations with strong input from all four players; Slawomir Kurkiewicz’s bass skills are particularly welldeployed in the spontaneous piece “Arco”.
