Description
"A mood of calm introspection sits over this collection of pieces for solo piano. Yet, within that, Cole succeeds in exploring divergent avenues of expression. the first disc contains her arrangements of compositions by various associates from the UK jazz scene: Jason Yarde's "Unisome (Unisin, Unison, Unisone, Unisum)!" is a fugue-like puzzle tackled with insouciant Monkish precision; Kim Macari's "Default Settings" mingles harp-like sweeps of the piano strings with intensely intimate vocal mutterings: while Corey Mwamba's "forgotten letters; Bereft; Tears: bright grey" is a solemn 15 minute suite of scattered stipples and enigmatic phrases. On the second disc, Cole presents her own compositions and improvisations, revealing a quietly emphatic sense of space: "The Crossing..." employs long pauses and isolated sonar-like notes, while "Extinguish" bathes in the warm glow of the sustain pedal." - DANIEL SPICER, THE WIRE
"A very personal statement from an engaged musician!" - VITAL WEEKLY
