Breathing Steve Nelson-Raney and Hal Rammel have been improvising together in the Milwaukee area since l994. The results of that continuing collabortaion are evidenced in the detailed improvisations on this compact disc. Drawing on recording sessions at Nelson-Raney's own Cody Recording in Milwaukee along with live performances at Lotus Music & Dance in New York and the UWM Fine Arts Recital Hall in Milwaukee, these duets encompass their extended instrumental array. Steve Nelson-Raney improvises on tenor, soprano, and sopranino saxophones, shakuhachi, clarinet, and ocarina. Hal Rammel improvises on musical saw, bass drum, and several instruments of his own design and construction: the acoustic triolin (a nail violin gone awry) and the amplified sound palette (an amplified variation on the nail violin). The results range from the subtle, breath-like sighs of the title track breathing, to the more raucous interplay of painting (an improvisation drawn from the middle section of an extended "painting and saxophone" duet in which Rammel alternated between improvised painting and amplified sound palette as Nelson-Raney played tenor saxophone.) The studio duets in this collection include such unusual combinations as musical saw and sopranino saxophone, clarinet and bass drum, and triolin with shakuhachi. 12 tracks in 55:39 minutes. Limited edition of 500. :::>>> Tell A Friend About This CD From Drimala If you like this cd, you might also enjoy listening to: Jump The Circle (Tom Hamilton and Tom Buckner) Trombolenium (Paul Rutherford) Specific Gravity (McPhee & Giardullo) Slybersonic Tromosome (Zummo and Hamilton) Cutting Off The Edge of Time (Nelson-Raney and Jon Mueller) Places To Go (Jack Wright) Trumpet (Kelley) Dorner-Drumm (Axel Dörner and Kevin Drumm) Pith Balls and Inclined Planes (Jeff Kaiser and Ernesto Diaz-Infante) Tuba Libre (Giancarlo Schiaffini) Claque (Dörner, Lonberg-Holm, Zerang) Window Shopping (Rajesh Mehta) |
