At the same time, Zvi HarellÆs mastery of technique creates an almost incidental atmosphere. Thoroughly thought out, the music thus also gives the impression of a sketch, a scribbleà a dance. Zvi HarellÆs playing, rounded as it is, is minimalist. It never tries to compel the listener by external effects of any kind. Yet the listener, in a very deep sense, is invited to share. Lend your ears, and you will here be reminded that sound is indeed nothing but air; i.e., spirit.
