These are delicate melodies and textures, flowing between two musicians, who care deeply for the nuances of tone-shadings and the detailed development of a musical idea. In both freely improvised forms and carefully wrought themes, their instruments connect gracefully, picking up and finishing each other's phrases.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eTouch of Time, recorded in January 2023 at the Auditorio Stelio Molo in Lugano, was produced by Manfred Eicher.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eArve Henriksen: trumpet, electronics\u003cbr\u003eHarmen Fraanje: piano\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePress:\u003c\/b\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e 'Another Fraanje tune, 'What All This Is', seems key to both men's philosophies.
