All it takes is a piano, a saxophone, and a double bass. What you get is amazing:
from yearning fado improvisations and jazzed up minimal klezmer, through supple tangos, pining love ballads and melancholic waltzes in slow motion, to sensually cool bossa nova and 'round midnight jazz. One moment you are reminded of French black and white films, the next of Fellini's light-hearted circus clowns. Whether it takes you gently by surprise, or comes at you head-on, whether it's whizzing by or almost coming to a halt, it's always vibrant, emotional and taught. It's perfectly balanced and enlightened by an intimate kind of illumination ...
