Iron Wedding

Iron Wedding is an album by Aki Takase and Alexander von Schlippenbach.

Pianists Aki Takase and Alexander von Schlippenbach had not recorded duets together for 15 years.

[1] The previous album was Piano Duets: Live in Berlin 93/94.

[2] Of the 17 tracks, some "are casual-sounding formal conundrums; others charge along in a kind of psychic boogie".

[1] Critic John Fordham wrote that "None of this music addresses any familiar hooks, grooves or thematic ideas, but the spontaneous thoughts of two such consummate keyboard artists and thinkers make a very powerful substitute.
