Jakob Bro / Joe Lovano / Midori Takada

Jakob Bro / Joe Lovano / Midori Takada brings together three players from different corners of quiet, improvised music. Bro is a Danish guitarist who records for ECM and played in Paul Motian's groups. Lovano, a tenor saxophonist from Cleveland, spent years in Motian's trio with Bill Frisell, and he and Bro recorded the ECM album Once Around the Room, a tribute to the drummer.

Midori Takada is a Japanese percussionist and composer whose 1983 solo album Through the Looking Glass, built from marimba, gongs and layered repetition, found a large new audience decades later through reissues and online listening. Her slow, pulsing approach to percussion meets the two Motian veterans' loose, breathing sense of time.
