This music is spacious, open, and warm – even when abruptly changing gears.
The musicians employ a confident approach that reflects the amount of
experience they have with each other. “Silver Light” is a perfect example,
opening with long quiet notes on clarinet and cello, as beautiful as a Morton
Feldman piece. When Lonberg-Holm and Falzone play long notes over a Daisy's
busy (but relaxed!) marimba in perfect counterpoint, the sublime becomes
transcendent. There is a hilarious perversion of the Braxton composition model
at the beginning of “Objects,” that involves tweaks in the time/space
continuum. Daisy seems to be dangling Fred and James from strings, forcing
them in different directions and then suddenly bringing them back together
solely through the intuitive will of his drumming. “Contained” demonstrates
even more clearly that this group can play as one six-armed machine, with
brilliant unhurried statements made by all, collectively and individually.
