Souls and Masters
   Dave Liebman (soprano saxophone, flute)
   Michael Gerber (piano)

The first release from Red Toucan's sister label, Cactus Records...indeed a harbinger of brilliant new music to come.  Souls and Masters is a beautiful recording of improvisational duets based on compositions by Rhoda Averbach.  Liebman is brilliant on this recording, reminding us of his mid-70s Lookout Farm work with Richard Beirach.  This time he is joined by pianist Michael Gerber, a pianist of rare abilities whose technical abilities match his improvisational abilities creating a depth of intensity few pianists achieve.  The result is intense, requiring sustained deep listening...rewarding all who enter.  Comes with our highest recommendation.  Extensive liner notes.

"owing to the superb, exclusively original compositions of Averbach and the brilliant performance and creativity expressed by Liebman and Gerber, this album achieves the very highest level possible in music." -- Jerry Coker
