Dedicating her compositions to a wide range of inspiring individuals allows
pianist Sylvie Courvoisier to create another excellent album with shades of
mood and nuance that draw from jazz, classical music as well as other
non-musical artforms. While this album plays tribute to those who have recently
passed, it is far from morose, rather a celebration of life and
accomplishments. Rounding out her trio with Kenny Wollesen on drums and
Wollesonic and Drew Gress on bass, the opening track "Imprint Double (For
Antoine Courvoisier)" has an arresting beginning section of low toned piano
playing with a brisk though light beat, which develops a propulsive and open
sounding groove. The shading of light and darkness encapsulates the title and
works very well, providing a push - pull dynamic of friction that powers the
music at varying levels of tension. A warm toned bass solo anchors the middle
section, framed by subtle piano and percussion, before moving to a more full
bodied conclusion. [...]
