Release Notes:

Ugly Beauties is the self-titled debut CD of
Toronto-based master improvisers pianist Marilyn
Lerner, cellist Matt Brubeck and drummer Nick
Fraser. Recorded in the summer of 2008 at the Glenn
Gould Studios at CBC Toronto, the 15 tracks feature
both partially written and totally improvised music
with composition contributions from each member of
the trio.

Ugly Beauties explores the terrain between jazz,
contemporary classical music and improvisation.
Piano, cello and drums interweave to create a
boundless palette of texture and mood, and the
breadth of sonic experimentation at times renders
the three instruments indistinguishable from each
other.

Lerner, Brubeck and Fraser possess an uncanny
synergy and improvisational virtuosity, with allows
the music to remain free as it circulates
effortlessly around groove, abstract lyricism and
harmonic exploration. This debut effort is a
compelling listen and you should buy this CD now
(if not for the music, than for the photo on the
cover)! (M.L.)
