The night that started it all. A world-renowned Spanish violinist Craig had met at Black Press the week before. A singer surprised onto the stage mid-show who brought the house down. Seiji Nakanishi's intense classical piano. Meital Waldmann's stunning voice with Matt Baker at the keys. Lacy Rose performing originals for the first time with Antongiulio. A jazz arrangement of Van Halen's Jump that nobody saw coming. Ric Cherwin holding the room together with warmth and wit. And late in the evening, two pianists who had never met sitting down at one instrument and improvising something that stopped time — and gave this collective its name.
