About
Saxophonist Dave Liebman and pianist Richie Beirach present a 5CD box set: a true masterpiece. In duo, in individual performances on their instrument as well as in trio with world-class drummer Jack DeJohnette, the two protagonists captivate with fabulous improvisations.
'Empathy', as the album title suggests, is a harmonious balance of expansiveness and complexity, a series of sound worlds filled with clearly defined details, intimate moments of lightness and depth, surprises and sideshows, and plenty of space.
Dave Liebman: piano
Richie Beirach: saxophone
Jack DeJohnette: drums

Throughout, the duo show how they can take a kernel of a musical idea and develop and burnish it into a spontaneously conceived work that grows and evolves with organic logic. Both players have never quite been given the due for the masters they are; maybe this set will tip the scales a little more in their favour, but don't hold your breath.
