HALL & GLEN CHARLES HALLS, GLEN - NORTHERN DIALOGUES (CD)

"quiet design presents northern dialogues by glen hall [saxophone & bass flute] and glen charles halls [piano]. this striking album is a new sound to the quiet design catalogue, featuring improvised jazz by two premier canadian musicians. these luxurious works are a stylistic tour de force, ranging from meditative ballads to ferocious freejazz to straight ahead standards. with echos of bill evans, cecil taylor, anthony braxton and dexter gordon, this album is destined to be a classic."
