about

“Not For Today” opens with an extended piano fantasy. Fleeting phrases by the other instrumentalists provide a bridge to a vocal anthem. The lyrics (by Kyra Gaunt) affirm the many “ways to freedom.” In a spirit of celebration, Wolper shows her substantive improvisational chops, crafting a multiple layered vocal tapestry of the chorus “Let us feel the joy.” In his improvisation, Azmeh considers many variants of the melody. Passages of tight interplay between clarinet and piano lead back to the song’s repeated melodic theme, upon which Tabbal solos with abandon.
