Stringology (album)

It was recorded at Sear Sound in New York City during September 1993, and was released in 1994 by Black Saint.

On the album, Murray and Hopkins are joined by guitarist Marvin Sewell and percussionists Ray Mantilla and Newman Baker.

"[4] In a review for AllMusic, Ron Wynn called the music "loose, unpredictable, exciting fare," and wrote: "Their mastery of their respective instruments results in some superb duets with Murray's higher-pitched bowing and Hopkins' plucking and answering lines making remarkable statements.

The group explores calypso and tango variations, as well as outside dialogues, inside movements and a concluding blues tune that turns that form upside down.

"[1] The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings stated that Murray "trades too heavily on certain rather limited ideas and these... can't quite be made to last the pace.
