Peter Evans & Barry Guy - Syllogistic Moments

This release on Maya Recordings documents a duo collaboration of avant-garde jazz bass legend Barry Guy together with the sensational American trumpet player Peter Evans.

Barry Guy: Peter Evans and I have occasionally met in larger ensembles for special projects. This particular concert in Uster (Switzerland) within the PAM festival on 18th November 2016, allowed us to delve into the minutiae of duo performance where intense listening and decoding of intentions kept our minds and bodies in high alert. This occasion had us playing somewhat athletically, pushing and pulling ideas around, and to be honest, we both felt exhausted after the concert but also exhilarated. The joys of improvisation I guess...and high speed communication.
