Similar piano texture and ambience runs through these tracks. Sakamoto's deceptively simple solo piano is just gorgeous,an instantly engaging and unforgettable melody;creating a mood which is continued into Mark Hollis's sparse,haunting song,the opening track to his 1998 solo album.The Garbarek track is a masterpiece of fusion,carrying on the piano texture of the previous two tracks through the fingers of Rainer Bruninghaus, whilst gently and refreshingly upping the mood and pace with Manu Katche and Marilyn Mazur's addictive rhythms and, of course, Garbarek's weaving melody.An overall mood journey ideal for late night.
