Our Take

Matt Haimovitz and Uccello's latest offering, "Meeting Of The Spirits," is like a musical ménage à trois - a tantalizing mash-up of classical, jazz, and rock sensibilities that will leave you begging for more.

As soon as the needle hits the groove, you're transported to a world where Bach and Hendrix party together in perfect harmony. Haimovitz's cello skills are on full display, effortlessly weaving in and out of Uccello's groovy rhythms and celestial harmonies.

The album kicks off with a bang on the title track, "Meeting Of The Spirits," a blistering fusion of Eastern and Western influences that will have you dancing around your living room like a madman. As the album progresses, each track offers a new sonic adventure - from the hauntingly beautiful "Blackbird" to the raucous energy of "Purple Haze."

But it's not all about the music - Haimovitz and Uccello's chemistry is palpable throughout, their playful banter adding a layer of charm to the already intoxicating mix. By the time the final notes of "All Along The Watchtower" fade away, you'll be left wanting more, more, more.

In conclusion, "Meeting Of The Spirits" is a genre-defying masterpiece that is sure to delight music lovers of all stripes. So go ahead, grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let the magic of Matt Haimovitz and Uccello wash over you like a warm blanket on a cold winter's night.
