Metamorphosis is true to its title only if the term includes transmogrifying
one way and subsequently taking a completely opposite form, as this
Canadian/Belgian foursome does on this CD. Initially on Metamorphosis I, it
appears that the brassy emphasis from Portuguese trumpeter Susana Santos Silva
and pressurized flutters from Belgian bass clarinetist Joachim Badenhorst are
going to be mere bagatelles to the polyrhythmic undulations from Portuguese
keyboardist Gonçalo Almeida, which seem to subsume all other timbres into a
crackling electronic wash. But not only is there soon space for brass and reed
counterpoint, once the sounds flow into Metamorphosis II, the pulsating
tick-tock of Canadian drummer Greg Smith kicks into gear and is joined by
string plucks from Almeida, who has switched to double bass, an expansion
creating a powerful acoustic jazz trope.
