Pharos
SILFRA
(2LP)
2x12 Inch

A twin-trombone jazz project, inspired by the classic 1950s recordings of Kai Winding and J.J. Johnson, combining modern jazz, funk, and ambient textures.
The twin trombone frontline is an esoteric but noble tradition in jazz, harking back to the famed 1950s recordings of Kai Windings and JJ Johnson. While respecting the tradition, the internationally renowned trombonists Paul Dunlea (from Cork) and Trevor Mires (from London) are not traditionalists, and their collaborative project Silfra showcases their thoroughly contemporary skills as composers and arrangers to create a fascinatingly diverse set of trombone led music.[info sheet from distr.]
