This is the third minor masterpiece in succession from Tzur, following Here Be Dragons (2019) and Isabela (2021). Throughout the personnel has remained unchanged, so important in developing a unified group sound that evolves through learned and intuitive responses to each other's playing on the bandstand. So important too, because every musical nuance and inflection are part of a collective sound that on the one hand possess unity and depth and on the other a part of a spiritual element that permeates Tzur’s performances.

Each composition seems finely wrought, and, like medieval craftsmen, every phrase seems fashioned for the ages. This is music of simmering intensity – Tzur’s tone, arresting in its otherworldly spirituality, spans an emotional divide from confessional intimacy to authoritative clarity, as he does on ‘Renata.’ But whether it is ‘Through a Land Unsown’ or ‘Last Bike Ride in Paris,’ the unity of purpose to serve the expressive needs of the composition – either in solo or ensemble – Klampanis and Tzur add compelling expressivity that invites contemplation and meditation.
