Azica Records, Inc. Just DuetJAZZ Jazz Now October 1997 Just Duet Azica Jazz AJD-72205 Holly Hofmann, flute from "A Trio of Jazz Bakery Performances"
By Scott Yanow
Three highly enjoyable performances took place recently at the Jazz Bakery. Flutist Holly Hofmann and pianist Bill Cunliffe were a mutually stimulating duo, constantly pushing and challenging each other. They recently recorded a duet album for Azica, and some of the material was taken from that, but obviously the solos were quite a bit different. Their diverse repertoire was highlighted by the boppish "Powell's Prances," "Old Folks," some bossa-nova, the pianist's solo feature on "I Cover the Waterfront" (which found him doing some striding), and a few classical melodies.
