''Prowl'' is a 2006 album by cellist Erik Friedlander performing his compositions with the quartet that previously appeared on ''Topaz'' which was released on the Cryptogramophone label.〔(Eric Friedlander discography ) accessed January 7, 2014〕 ==Reception== The Allmusic review by William Tilland awarded the album 4 stars stating "it's clear on this CD that Friedlander has moved well beyond simple virtuosity and has used his compositional skills and the collective talent of his group to capture something much more elusive and valuable. This is music with legs, which reveals new depths and delights even after long exposure. Highly recommended".〔Tilland, W. (Allmusic Review ) accessed January 7, 2014〕 PopMatters rated the album 8 out of 10 observing that "Erik Friedlander’s melodies, when he deploys them, go straight to the cerebellum, where they lodge pretty much forever".〔Cibula, M. (PopMatters album review ), March 2, 2006〕 Writing for All About Jazz, Troy Collins commented "Topaz, which celebrates its tenth anniversary with this fourth album, has long been Friedlander's primary vehicle for exploring global rhythms in a jazz context, and ''Prowl'' delivers evidence of that concept in spades".〔Collins, T. (All About Jazz Review ), February 14, 2006.〕 David R. Adler stated in JazzTimes that "The group’s main asset is its distinctive sound, which is quasi-electric but without conventional drums. Friedlander’s instrument can freely alternate between bass and melody, arco and pizzicato".〔Adler, D.
