"This already numbers among my contenders for the year end top ten list. The playing here is so fresh and of the moment that it is timeless. The only comparative weakness is the brevity of Hello and Penultimatum as the prime strength of this unit lies in the unfolding process of their creative interaction (although the elegiac ritual Goodbye demonstrates an ability to reign in technique to sustain an inspired ensemble dynamic). It is in three extended performances that the players demonstrate their mastery of minimalism and exquisite sonic detail. The innovative rapport of Bailey and Stevens is justly celebrated, as evidenced by their wonderful duo interludes during Three Two Three Two One and Two Three Two Three. Yet it is Gjerstad who truly comes into his own after tentative beginnings. He and Bailey create a duet of intensifying space during the splendid of Three Two Three Two One, while in the final third of Three by Three Gjerstad's loosely inventive counterpoint evolves into inspired and unfettered playing that showcases him at his most dynamic and inventive. HELLO GOODBYE is an exciting, essential document."
