Album Description
REVIEWS The trio Friedrich-Herbert-Moreno has a structured, free-wheeling sound pregnant with personality and panache. This is progressive trio music that should be considered with that of pianists Paul Bley and Uri Caine. Introspectively extroverted. A paradox speaking to an enigma about an iconoclast. This music is a superb, poorly behaved collection that will tickle the fancy of any advant-gardist without running off the more mainstream. Michael Bailey / allaboutjazz.com. Pianist Jurgen Friedrich has a firm grasp on the Paul Bley-via-Bill Evans brand of lyrical improvisation, along with an elegant touch and plenty of poise. 3 1/2 stars out of 4. Art Lange / Tower Records Pulse magazine. A true group performance. Surfacing is the debut recording of the trio - it seems almost impossible that they have achieved such empathy and finesse without years of exposure. Dick Stafford / musicweb
