“Duo Milano features Cline and multi- instrumentalist Elliott Sharp in a series of acoustic/electric duets that strive for — and very often achieve — a kind of telepathic oneness. “Our playing together resonates in such a way as to create the sound of one seething bubbling bristling glowing instrument,” says Sharp of his rapport with Cline. Indeed, the two are often indiscernible from each other in both the acoustic and electric settings. The two reach incredible heights over ten improvisations, immersed in the intimacy of the setting and reaching toward a common artistic vision.”

"This fabulous disc consists of ten amazing duets, five acoustic and five electric pieces. Superbly recorded and immensely satisfying in sonic detail. The acoustic side balances super-quick harp-like flourishes with the naked purity of spacious, bluesy e-bow drones. The electric side is dark and dreamy with strange, bent-note ballistics. From quietly cosmic to extremely intense."
