Don Peretz/Jacob Sacks: Numerals

Read "Numerals" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


The integer most integral to Numerals is the number two. A duo date highlighting the communicative and experimental bents bonding drummer-composer Don Peretz with pianist Jacob Sacks, it was recorded in two parts, in two states, with two different modi operandi in play.
