Guitar Sculptures, do guitarrista britânico Steve Lofkin, e Meme & Variations, do norte-americano e repetente DC Improvisers Collective.
Interventions #30: Steve Lofkin - Guitar Sculptures: Shimmering, gliss'ning, improvised solo guitar sculptures recorded between April and August 2003 -- ethereal, spacey, delicate, frantic, dark, longing, and haunting. "A return to solo playing on the back of disbanding an acoustic guitar/violin ensemble, this is a record of my initial pursuit to find an alternative to playing tunes. Instinctive soundscapes caught at the moment of creation. Some nice themes occasionally occurred and overdubs were added, pending on where the initial idea flowed. Recorded warts and all -- much to the dismay of my recording engineer buddy. A chance to trust the process -- and then, leave it alone. " Total time: 46:23.
Interventions #31: DC Improvisers Collective - Meme & Variations: Five aural views of a territory unfolding the textures and tropes of jazz improvisation, contemporary composition, and electronics. By turns meditative, agitated, cerebral, and plaintive, the ensemble's playing balances open formal structures with an associative sensibility to create a real-time transmutation of disparate musical elements into coherent wholes. Featuring Ben Azzara (drums & percussion), Daniel Barbiero (contrabass), Jonathan Matis (guitar, prepared guitar, electronics), and Mike Sebastian (tenor & soprano sax, bass clarinet). Total time: 57:08.
