SCLAVIS LOUIS/BENJAMIN MOUSSAY – UNFOLDING CD

Description

Having previously joined forces on several Louis Sclavis recordings for ECM in recent years, including the clarinetist’s last album, Characters On A Wall, Sclavis and pianist Benjamin Moussay increasingly focus on their two-way communication, playing expansive and well-received concerts throughout Europe. Now, in a program of originals (two-thirds from the pianist’s pen, the remaining third by the clarinetist), the French duo dreams up a world of chamber conversations that juxtaposes lyrical contemplation with whimsical inventiveness in a joyous, concentrated collaboration.
