Palle Mikkelborg-Jakob Bro-Marilyn Mazur: Strands

Palle Mikkelborg palys trumpet and flugelhorn both open and muted at a concert at the Danish Radio Concert Hall with guitarist Jakob Bro and percussionist Marilyn Mazur n this recent release. The focus is on ambient arias, tapestries of sound throughout the evening, with a muted Mikkelborg creating pastoral tones around trickling percussion and soft guitars on “Oktober” and long shadows over animal-like rustlings during “Youth”. Some tropical percussion mixes with agonizing guitar and gasping brass on “Returnings” and echoey horn tones and sighs dominate “Gefion” before the evening ends on a lovely dream of “Lyskaster”.  Music in pastels
