De nuevo Alina Records nos propone un viaje por la música de un maestro del jazz y de la improvisación. La propuesta, en esta ocasión, amplía sus timbres a diversos instrumentos de cuerda pulsada y al violín para que cuatro grandes artistas centroeuropeos expresen la inspiración del incansable y genial pianista Paul Bley, una de las figuras más influyentes y generosas del siglo XX y parte del XXI. Este constructor y deconstructor de melodías y modos, de maneras y actitudes creativas, ha sido una de esas personas sin las cuales nuestra música actual no sería como lo es hoy en día. Christian Vasseur, Richard Bonnet, Nöel Akchoté y Matthias Boss interiorizan magistralmente las múltiples caras de esta poliédrica figura fundamental de nuestra cultura sonora... y de nuestra más íntima sensibilidad artística…

"Many years ago a friend of mine, the composer Jacques Deregnaucourt talked to me about Paul Bley and we listened some musics together. It was a solo recording, maybe Alone Again. I really enjoyed this border line music, jazz and non-jazz mood with, plucked strings, modal approach with very quite and deep spaces. It was empathetic with the mood I looked for at this time. Since this discovery Paul Bley remains one of my favourite border line pianists and musicians"
