Sung

Description

Trumpeter Kris Tiner and pianist Cathlene Pineda have been collaborating for over ten years, first within Pineda's quartet, with three albums already released on Orenda Records. Their deep friendship and intuitive musical connection naturally led them to the duo format. During their recent concerts, they explored original compositions, improvisations, and subtle arrangements of the American jazz and folk repertoire. "Sung" is the most accomplished work of their duo to date. The album primarily features original compositions — four by Pineda and three by Tiner — influenced by artists as diverse as Ellington, Chopin, Stravinsky, and Kenny Wheeler. Side A of the vinyl closes with a poignant interpretation of "Silence," a composition by their shared mentor, Charlie Haden. The album was recorded in Los Angeles in a single session by sound engineer Talley Sherwood. "Sung" is available on Orenda Records across all digital platforms and in a limited vinyl edition with a booklet by Josh Haden.
