Marty Ehrlich/Myra Melford: Yet Can Spring
ByAll but one of the compositions on Yet Can Spring are originals. After the crash-and-roll of the title track, they tend toward emotional middle groundgenerally preferring to stay mellow and pensive. Ehrlich's tone mostly exudes a smooth fluidity with a self-conscious firmness, as if he knows the limits and chooses carefully when to test them. Yet Can Spring represents the first duo meeting of these two musicians, and hopefully not the last. At times a bit understated for this listener, this disc is certain to satisfy those with a liking for spare, careful improvisationand an open ear for the notes that lurk beyond.
