S.Mizrahi, The New York City Jazz Record Trumpeter Josh Deutsch and guitarist Nico Soffiato have been playing together as a duo since 2006, when they met in Boston. Over the last year, the musical relationship born through this collaboration resulted in a set of music composed specifically for this ensemble, including several co-written works. This record captures and expresses the potentials of both this duo setting and their relationship, allowing for intricate layers of transparency, interaction and sonic exploration-elements that are often lost in larger ensembles. Josh and Nico have embraced the challenges and possibilities of writing for this duo and created a book of original music borrowing from some of their favorite classical, jazz and pop ideals. The music ranges from electronic loops to entirely acoustic pieces, balancing carefully crafted compositions with space for exciting improvisations and interaction. The duo has performed throughout the New York area, the West Coast area and Italy.
