Notes

Leandre and Roger don’t make free jazz, but free improv. There’s a similar ferocity of energy, though, and it’s not always at the quiet volumes most often associated with duets involving bass players. Leandre has a particular talent for sustained, timbral playing — one could call it "textural", if that didn’t imply some kind of background drone which is pretty distant from what she’s most comfortable with. Roger is a fine partner in this regard, a percussionist who often favours scraping, dragging, rattling sounds to the sharp metronome crack of the stick. (m-etropolis.com)
