Roberta Piket - piano
Mark Tokar - double bass
Klaus Kugel - drums
Nemu Records 2013
This is an international quartet with US citizens Roby Glod on saxes and Roberta Piket on piano, Klaus Kugel on drums from Germany and Mark Tokar on bass from Ukraine (a rhythm section that appears together in other groups as well, ie Undivided or the trio with Andre' Pabarciute).
The name of the collective means "At the Foundry" which is metaphorically quite accurate. There are six pieces on the cd, everyone with a seed of sketched melody, to be filled and surrounded differently with each execution, not unlike working with a fused metal in a factory.
