Jim Hall

• 4 STARS ALL MUSIC GUIDE

Duologues brings Hall and Pieranunzi together for a program of spontaneous improvisations and original compositions defined by a shared sense of adventure. Hall's tone combines occasionally processed hollowbody warmth with an organic acoustic sound, bringing surprising textural breadth. Piano/guitar duets run the inherent risk of sounding cluttered, yet Hall and Pieranunzi—even when engaged in total free play—always use their ears, creating pieces that are rich but never busy.
