Review of Around Titles by The List
“Reid is a fantastically gifted player, which gives him the confidence to be an admirably restrained, non-showy and generous improviser, while Weinachter displays both astounding explosive strength and extremely deft control and fluidity. Together, this makes for a very special creative partnership – reciprocal, political, mutually responsive, based in open dialogue rather than conflict and competition.”
