Alexander Von Schlippenbach: Elf Bagatellen auf 2 LPs

Here comes the first appearance on vinyl of Elf Bagatellen, a 1990 FMP classic from the legendary Schlippenbach Trio where the group achieved fever-dream beauty through self-imposed temporal limitations. The trio deliberately shaped the music, opting for
more concise pieces rather than concert-length performances that had become standard practice. Those durational limitations clearly inspired them, bringing a jewel-like, compositional flow to many of the works, although even when the trio seems to be
playing a tune in a piece like "Analogue: Scaled" the performance moves so rapidly into the next event any such notion is banished.
