about

This week's performance went in unplanned and unexpected directions. The weekend had been full of activity, and come Monday evening, it was more natural to let the instrument and situation make the decisions. In this kind of improvisation, I'm part of an unfolding experience, affecting it as part of the musician-instrument-system-audience chain, but I'm not the sole director of it. The music unfolds how it unfolds.

This one seems a bit like a scratch-and-dent performance in places--there's some line hum, some vibration and resonance of the rosewood slide buzzing against the string, three clipped peaks I've had to reduce in 4...but the whole thing has an identity.

This week's improvisation is dedicated to the work of Perle Fine. Thank you for listening!
