Caroline Kraabel - Phil Hargreaves: Where We Were
Il risultato è invece una musica priva di spessore. I due sembrano votati ad una ricerca timbrica esasperata, che alla fine non fa che produrre una musica contratta, singhiozzante, priva di mordente. Un’ora abbondante di cigolii, squittii e colpi d’ancia, senza che si riesca a intravedere una via d’uscita, un punto di fuga, sembra davvero eccessiva.
Rallentato, senza slancio, il disco offre pochi guizzi. Tra questi, l’improvviso, nervoso e audace dialogo tra sax tenore e soprano a metà del secondo brano. Per un attimo si è quasi folgorati da un bagliore improvviso. Poi, si ripiomba in una dimensione claustrofobica.
