Remembrance is a live album featuring a performance by Cecil Taylor and Louis Moholo recorded in Berlin on July 3, 1988 as part of month-long series of concerts by Taylor and released on the FMP label.

Contents

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek states: "Much of the music Cecil Taylor made during his month-long stay in Berlin was truly worthwhile and reinvigorating for him as an artist, some of it was just ho hum, a little of it was pretty much garbage, and a very small amount was so brilliant it ranked near the pinnacle of his long and well-documented career. This date with South African drummer Louis Moholo is one such performance... There are few recordings like this one, which inspires even as it amazes the listener."
