About the Album

Innovative composer Ingrid Laubrock’s newest project is one of her most fascinating and rewarding to date: She has curated a library of moods from the poetry of Erica Hunt for four adventurous vocal-instrumental duos. The 60 brief yet evocative koans on this double album feature the pairings of Fay Victor/Mariel Roberts, Sara Serpa/Matt Mitchell, Theo Bleckmann/Ben Monder, and Rachel Calloway/Ari Streisfeld (Duo Cortona).
