About
Cementing a 20-year artistic partnership, the duo of saxophonist Ivo Perelman and pianist Matthew Shipp creates totally improvised music as lyrical as it is audacious. By discarding every conventional foundation of music – written melodies, chord schemes, predetermined tempo or time signature – they eliminate the boundaries between traditional composition and performance. Perelman’s protean tone fuses extended technique with a purity of passion, complemented by Shipp’s own array of timbral combinations and gradations of attack. On their shared expedition of discovery, they have become the Lewis and Clark of post-freedom music.
