Resonant Interval

admin — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 15:31:48 +0000

I was on the bill of Resonant Interval #29, part of a weekly series of experimental music held in one of the empty units of the Mekong Center. I’m still exploring my long-loop approach to improvising at the piano, and this was a good chance to try it out in performance.

Lucretia

I spent a week helping Doug Balliett produce his new popera seria, The Consent of Lucretia, in San Antonio. I played piano, bass guitar and harmonium, and sang Junius and Collatinus. You can watch Doug’s remarks about the 3 act, genre busting opera on youtube, and read a review by Jack Fishman, head of the SA Symphony. Photos soon!
