Veryan Weston: Allusions

Read "Allusions" reviewed by John Eyles

by John Eyles

With the first batch of 2009 releases--this is the first--Emanem has abandoned jewel case packaging and opted for the far more appealing all-card version, a very welcome change indeed.

Veryan Weston/Caroline Kraabel: Five Shadows

Read "Five Shadows" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

The aptly titled Five Shadows documents a series of piano/saxophone duets which often feature more open space than sound.
