DESCRIPTION:Composer-pianist B&auml\;rtsch likens the linked-mind interplay
  inside his unique group to a school of fish moving across a coral reef wi
 th lightning speed.\n\nCompositions can evolve strangely\, too\, he points
  out. With this in mind Ronin keeps casting its nets in the same ocean\, f
 inding forms that defy expectations immediately or manifest their mutation
 s slowly.&hellip\;\n&nbsp\;\nThe three previous albums from this group hav
 e been recorded in-studio. Following extensive touring\, Nik B&auml\;rtsch
  and producer Manfred Eicher decided it was time to record the band live\,
  hence this new double-CD which perfectly showcases the band&rsquo\;s hypn
 otic and dynamic performance. Pulsating rhythms\, motoric pulses seduce th
 e ear.\n&nbsp\;\n&ldquo\;As the band&rsquo\;s composer\, I precisely set d
 own most of the pieces in notation\, but in performance it becomes at some
  point impossible to tell what is composed\, interpreted or improvised. Th
 e band has to discover the right tension and the suitable dramatic structu
 re for a piece on the spur of the moment. The band-organism thus outwits n
 ot only the composition\, but itself.&rdquo\;\n\nPercussionist Andi Pupato
  and Nik B&auml\;rtsch's Ronin have mutually agreed to end their cooperati
 on. Nik B&auml\;rtsch and his band Ronin thank Andi for his musical and te
 chnical expertise and contribution\, his support for the band\, as well as
  his dedication to the music. Nik and the band wish Andi the very best for
  the future.\n\n\n
