CRAX release

Axel Dörner/Clare Cooper/Cor Fuhler – Crax (Conundrom)
review posted by Brian Olewnick at
Another fine release from Fuhler’s willfully obscure Conundrom label … A single 35 minute track, recorded on December 21st of 2007, it’s a lovely blend of bittersweet, long tones, Dörner providing the acerbity, Fuhler the tonal ground and Cooper, a harpist from Australia new me, the glistening pinpoints of color. Several very beautiful “patches” where the trio is absolutely unified as well as cohesive throughout. Good stuff and good luck finding it, but here’s Cor’s site.
