Dedication

"Duos are often thrown together for the sake of economy, or convenience or caprice, and the results usually reflect it.  This is the second album of duets recorded by Mal Waldron and David Friesen, however, and their familiarity is audible in the ease with which they interact, the respect in which they hold each other's contributions, and the fact that this coming together is based not on comfort, but challenge.  What makes this collaboration so striking is that they are a matched pair--equal, and yet individual--and their union is grater that the sum of the parts".  (Art Lange)
