ZOFO Plays Terry Riley

ZOFO are consistently energetic yet sensitive performers who introduce new life into the music they play. This CD is particularly effective — Terry and the ZOFO duet are a match made in heaven. Top Notch recording, innovative compositions, and matchless performances make this album a knockout.

Surprisingly melodic, progressive and complex, considering that this is a reiteration of Terry Riley's works. The depth and fullness of the sound Zofo gets out of one piano is astounding. The feathery, bright melodies on one end of the duet compliment and contrast the darker, plodding harmony being played on the other end. A highly refined work sonically and compositionally. At times, the melody travels from one set of hands to the next, which is a joy to listen to, along with being a technical feat not many duets can boast. Not only is Zofo's performance on this album exceptional, but Sono Luminus's production is impeccable. Tremendously dynamic, organic, and pure. Without a doubt, this is a must hear for any piano enthusiast, or classical music fan looking for a modern, superlative instrumental album.

at the awesome hands of Zofo. THIS Is a side to Terry’s work that comes off as unexpected, surprising, eye-opening, vibrant and absolutely unique! Zofo worked closely with Terry on this project and program and it shows in every way! Seriously ESSENTIAL.
