*2025 stock* When Evan Parker, Barry Guy and percussionist Paul Lytton renewed their association at l’Auditori in Barcelona in March 2006, they chose to call the resulting CD ZAFIRO, or “Sapphire”. The following day, the trio was joined by Catalan pianist Agustí Fernández at the same venue to record the Topos album. The chemistry changes to an almost microscopic world of shifting colours and densities prompted by Fernández’s mercurial articulations of the piano keys and the strings inside the instrument.
The nine tracks on Topos represent short essays in controlled instrumental integration and quick fire
responses to the nuances of the changing textures. Four dedicated musicians continuing their voyage of
discovery and invention.
