One of the earliest recordings to embody what would come to be known as
the ECM sound, Red Lanta is a series of piano/reed duets that have a
Scandinavian starkness offset, somewhat unfortunately, by a soft
sentimentality that verges on kitsch. At the time, Garbarek was
vacillating between the strident and thrilling explorations of his
Triptykon and Witchi-Tai-To and his increased involvement with the
fuzzier work of Keith Jarrett, and this collaboration moved him
decidedly toward the latter. Art Lande composed all the pieces here and
brings a Jarrett-esque sense of pastel prettiness and pastoral,
folk-influenced serenity. Sometimes this works in isolation, the melody
being simple and attractive enough to stand on its own; when offered
back to back, a cloying quality sets in and an aural palate cleanser
becomes a necessity. Still, this general approach proved extremely
popular in the ensuing years, and devotees of ECM's later years will
want to hear one of its points of germination. But the fire and passion
of Garbarek's early work on albums such as Afric Pepperbird has been all
but extinguished by this time. by Brian Olewnick
