"Hugo Costa and Philipp Ernsting, two well known musicians from Rotterdam, have a rich history of collaboration, working together on projects like Albatre, Anticlan, and their duo Costa & Ernsting. For their latest venture, they've invited the legendary double bassist William Parker to join them for a recording session in Rotterdam.
This new project captures the essence of free improvisation, characterized by emotional spontaneity and raw intensity. The true beauty of their music lies not in perfection or resolution, but in the ongoing journey of exploration and transformation. Each note is a heartfelt expression of the present moment, inviting listeners to witness the real-time evolution of musical ideas."-NoBusiness
