TEXTURES is an improvising trio exploring that idea, the timbre and fabric of sound, nuance and undulation, getting past note into the sound itself. As a group, we come to this project with no specific preconceptions or dialogue, no mapping it out, and so the work will be as spontaneous as possible, with structures of amoebic movement. As some musicians have noted, music is a listening art, and so with improvisation the element of trust is bolstered, the value of Ear consciousness is brought into a more present focus.
