 ## Notes
-<(wip)>
+I haven't been following Lovano's career all that closely -- my conception was that he was too much a part of the New York Hard Bop contingent to really stimulate my fancy. Not that I disliked his work, on the contrary, I was happy to hear it now and then. Only that it didn't grab my fancy enough for me to keep track of his every step.
+So I show up to tonight's gig and am astonished and surprised to hear him playing "out" jazz instead of the bop I'd expected. Cool! Of course, if I'd been a better fan, I would have listened to the _Trio Tapestry_ album in advance. Note to self: prep work is a good idea!
+Anyways, I thought the opening mini-set from _Trio Tapestry_ started out a little tentative ... as if the players needed five or ten minutes to relax and get themselves into the flow, but once that happened, zip zoom blast off! WOW! They were playing really great stuff. I probably have the song order messed up (or they didn't play it in the order that Joe announced), but according to my notes, during the latter portion of _Piano/Drum Episode_, Joe performed a duet with himself, playing saxophone and gongs. Haven't seen that before!
+For the following tune, Joe swapped to clarinet. From my vantage point, it looked to be a little larger/longer than a standard B♭ soprano, but it was straight, rather than curved or bent. Maybe it was a Basset horn instead?
+I was especially enraptured during the middle portion of the show: the _Trio Fascination_ segment. It was really cool to watch the interplay between the musicians -- all seemed to be listening hard, making space for the others to state a musical point, then responding or harmonizing or framing a counterposition once the opportunity arose. It's funny to think that this trio performed only two long songs compared to the 8 tunes from the first trio. Different approaches to the same goal?
+Having both groups play for the finale was a nice treat, but I was expecting something a bit longer than 15 minutes. Greedy? Yeah, sure, but when the music-making is that good, why not keep it going?
