  • Description

    The first duo recording between legendary US pianist Mal Waldron and British saxophonist George Haslam, who play four original compositions/improvisations as well as songs by Duke Ellington, Leonard Bernstein, Frank Loesser and Brahms.

    Recorded at SRT Studios, St. Ives, 24th February 1994.

    Mal Waldron: piano

    George Haslam: baritone saxophone

    Press:

    "Mal Waldron's dark, circumspect approach is in full force as he carves agile lines with the help of British baritone saxophonist George Haslam... Haslam boasts a singularly attractive, thin tone that balances the pianist's dense styling. The commanding improvisations by both Haslam and Waldron straddle the boundaries of free and post-bop jazz in a compellingly charming way." - **** Steve Loewy, AllMusic
