It is a duo of Leszek Mozdzer and Lars Danielsson with unique lyrical feeling of European musician. Mozdzer perform very lyrical play compared to his usual.

It can be regarded as a masterpiece of Danielsson and Mozdzer!
It is very sophisticated and refined sound, so even the fans of classical music may like this.
Lars Danielsson is a representative bassist of Sweden. while Leszek Mozdzer is very expected pianist from Poland, who became famous for his play of the Chopin's compositions.
It is the collaboration of the northern European feeling and the eastern European feeling. I can say it is the typical style of European-jazz fans like.
The leader is Lars Danielsson, therefore the play of bassist is featured well. Nine tunes among 14 are the composition of Lars Danielsson. It's lucky for me because Lars's compositions are very amiable and easy to listen.
This work is good because Mozdzer performs very emotional play than usual. I think Mozdzer's usual play is more mechanical and impersonal.
What I feel every time I listen Mozdzer's play is that he has extremely dexterous pianist. Sometimes he looks like Keith Jarret and other time he looks like Chick Corea.
It is also interesting that some unique instrument, such as the celesta and the harmonium are used. The celesta is a kind of keyboard instrument and the harmonium is a kind of the organ.
The recording quality of ACM is not bad.
By the way the "passodoble" means a style of Spanish music that used in bullring. But note that this album does not especially have a Spanish feeling.

---pick up----
1. Praying
Very beautiful and emotional waltzs with feeling like it stings our hearts. I can like this album only for this song.
The introduction uses harmonics of bass in up tempo. The bass plays the first theme. Then they plays theme in unison.
Actually, such beautifulness and lyrics performance is supported by extremely high level of technique of them. I can never see any kind of disarray for their play.

2. Fellow
It gives us a comfort. Typical style of the Lars Danielsson.
The theme is simple one that uses the unison of the bass and the piano in low tone.
3. Entrance
Very calm. more comfort than Fellow. It is also Lars's composition.
4. Prado
syncopated beat.
The bass employes arco play in theme. It is unison with the piano.
The harmonium is played a little bit.
5. Pasodoble
It is powerful and spiritual tune. I guess Mozdzer play using the piano with some cloths stucked in piano wire. It is triple time in up tempo. Mozdzer's play reminds me a Chick Corea's play with Spanish feeling.
6. Daughter's Joy
Mysterious tune.
7. It's Easy with You
It is the composition of Mozdzer. But the bass is featured well.　Lars shows us very uplifted bass solo.
8.Hydrospeed
It the usual style of Mozdzer!
9.Reminder
Sad song. I can feel Lars's soul.
11. Follow My Backlights
It is like a "socery" by Charles Lloyd's band.
12. Eja Mitt Hjarta
Folksong.
The harmonics is performed.
