A 1974 quartet album featuring some of ECM’s most iconic musicians: Jan Garbarek (ts, ss), Keith Jarrett (p), Palle Danielsson (b), and Jon Christensen (ds). A1 is an exhilarating jazz dancer, with bright, sharply articulated piano and tenor saxophone riding over a deeply grooving rhythm section, while A2 is a beautifully moody slow jazz piece, pairing Jarrett’s elegant piano with Garbarek’s wistful, melancholic saxophone. With its delicate tonal colors and remarkable sense of transparency and space, this is a quintessential ECM recording. A true classic.
