AN INTERNATIONAL TRIO OF GREAT IMPROVISERS FRITH, SCLAVIS, and DROUET delivered improvisations with a clear sense of intersecting personal vocabularies. FRITH displayed versatility, moving from abstract textures to searing linearity to dulcet, fingerpicked folkish melodiousness. SCLAVIS responded with lines that built from warm, bubbling melodies to insistent, fiery flurries. DROUETs whistles, bells, and hand drums were an effective complement, creating a flowing open pulse. Their playing displayed a warm, relaxed sensibility. The extended improvisation moved from open, free sections to heated intensity, ending with an intimate interchange of Flamenco-like, dancing guitar patterns, Arabic modal clarinet, and tinkling percussion. At times though, the improvisation rambled as the three players searched for transitions, particularly toward the end of the set. Michael Rosenstein, Cadence, July 2000
