Pianist
John Wolf Brennan
and his quintet's music is adventurous and often quite dissonant but it is also quirky, episodic, witty in spots and full of variety. The title cut,
"Shooting Stars & Traffic Lights,"
has violinist
Tscho Theissing
playing a sweet
classical
melody that is soon overrun but not completely defeated by other sounds and ideas.
"Ognatango"
is an eccentric
tango
, and other pieces range from exuberant to somber, brief sound explorations to more highly developed interplay. Recorded in 1993, these intriguing performances have not dated in the least. Violinist
Theissing
is a major find, saxophonist
John Voirol
displays versatility, and
Brennan
acts as a genial host and conductor for the consistently surprising events. Highly recommended. [
