Breaking in isn't always about burglary - it can also refer to the process of getting a new thing settled. Fresh, crisp - but not yet pliable. It takes use and time for many materials to reach their optimal point.Featuring clarinet.https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/breaking-in#clarinet #improvisation #ccmusic #musodon #music #unaccompanied #jazz #avantgarde

On today's new episode of The Tonearm Podcast, saxophonist and composer Caroline Davis joins us to discuss 'Fallows', her debut solo album. Davis recorded the twelve-track set entirely alone during an artist residency at Ucross, Wyoming, using prepared saxophone techniques and an Organelle processing unit. The conversation covers the making of the album in close detail: aluminum cans dragged across a saxophone bell, hand-built drum sequences assembled through Pure Data patches, and the ancestral figures — Steve Lacy, Geri Allen, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Connie Crothers — whose presence Davis summoned throughout the sessions.Don't miss this particularly fascinating episode: https://podcast.thetonearm.com/caroline-davis-the-saxophone-reimagined-in-the-fallows/#Jazztodon #Saxophone #CarolineDavis #ExperimentalMusic #Ucross

@geraldew liked this quote I'm one of those article links you posted."…to find somebody who knew all of Mahler but also knew all Fanny Brice's jokes. That was just unbelievable."Think it was that mix of encouraging/sharing both the old and the new for listeners and not taking things too seriously that appealed to me. He left room for joy.

Mozart wrote the best adagios. Just 10s of the start of this movement and work is replaced by chill. And that's not even my preferred clarinet concerto in A...#music #classicalmusic #mozart #chill #clarinet

@DuchessOfSnork @julian ooooo pretty!!

@rye@ioc.exchange improvs over a backing track? Typically it's gonna be pop music covers on sax though, eh.
