Dive into the spontaneous and exhilarating world of free jazz with Ivo Perelman's latest release, "Duologues 2 - Joy." This nine-track suite, released on August 7, 2024, under the Ibeji label, is a testament to Perelman's mastery of improvisation and his ability to create captivating dialogues with his musical partners. This time, Perelman teams up with the adventurous violinist Gabby Fluke-Mogul for a set of unhindered improvisations that dance in the upper registers of their instruments, creating a sonic landscape that is both tonally and atonally rich.
"Duologues 2 - Joy" is the third installment in Perelman's duo series, following his collaboration with drummer Tom Rainey.

The album's 37-minute duration is filled with short exchanges that flitter around each other, showcasing the unique chemistry between the two musicians.
Perelman, known for his infinite creativity and technical prowess, continues to push the boundaries of jazz with this release. "Duologues 2 - Joy" is not just another album; it's a journey into the heart of improvisation, where every note is a discovery and every track is a conversation.
