On this new CD Duo we have caught the tight ensemble playing in a live like recording. Most tunes were recorded in a studio session, after a tour in September 1998. The Japanese composer Kousaku Yamada is often played by Winduo, here they play Akamoto. Some Scandinavian composers as Lars Gullin and the Danish guitarist Pierre Dörge are represented. The CD also contains some free improvisations.
Musicians Yasuhito Mori - bass Anders Hagberg - flutes, soprano sax.
"The music is relaxed without loosing intensity and the jazz foundation is spiced with beautiful folk musical tone."
"The soft sound of Hagberg's flutes and soprano sax is weaved together with Mori's bass lines in their own and other's compostions."
