Yes, there is a piano being played by Quentin Tolimieri on this solo album of 8 pieces, 6 of which are originals. All eight are free form explorations with tension and assertiveness. For 16 minutes, “Changing/Time” is a relentless run of rapid finger contortions, while “Shorty” prances for a minute and a half.” His fingers chop up the ivories on ”Fours and Ones” he jumps on shattered glass on “Fin.” Of the covers, “On Green Dolphin Street” is almost unidentifiable with dark, stark and short bursts, and “Well, You Needn’t” has two coexisting pairs of hands arms wrestling. Complex and dexterous, but can’t there also be some exhaling along with inhalation?
