About the Album

Jonas Tauber's previous solo bass release on Origin was called, "...a performance of impressionistic beauty, dramatic excitement, virtuosic control and unique imagination that's unlike that of any other recording of acoustic bass," by Jazz Review. Here, the Swiss bassist returns to his original instrument, the cello, for an exploration of color and rhythmic variety in a set of duets with guitarist Francis Colleta. Port Said Street, in Marseilles, is the beginning of this journey through memories and places, with originals "Misty Cat," "La Calanque," and "Vasil," and standards "Body and Soul," "Caravan," "Nica's Dream," and "How Insensitive," all chosen for the qualities they offer to present these two instruments at their best.
