Their appearance at the Berliner Jazztage only reinforced this acclaim, with reviewers praising the duo's remarkable interplay, intensity, and artistic daring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarry Miles, a pioneering force in early jazz fusion, began his musical life as a drummer before switching to piano at nineteen.

He recorded his first album for Prestige at the astonishing age of sixteen and later collaborated with giants such as Chick Corea, Dave Holland, and Jack DeJohnette.
