Recorded at Wesleyan University, April 17, 1998. Music by Anthony Braxton.
Two Compositions (Trio) 1998 is not just another double-CD installment in Anthony Braxton's ghost trance music, it is also one of the best and most readily enjoyable of the series.
Both pieces were recorded live at Wesleyan University on April 17, 1998, and clock in at under an hour (56 and 49 minutes, to be precise).
Despite the fact that they stick to a stable meter and consist of interlocking, repeated patterns, they remain lively and entertaining - yes - throughout.
