about

This album is a performance of a visual score for three musicians. The score consists of three different pages, each of which is played by one of the musicians in the trio. Each page contains nine distinct visual ideas, which are interpreted by the musicians sequentially and in unison. The musicians then exchange pages and repeat this process two more times, allowing each musician to perform each page exactly once.

I composed this visual score on November 24, 2020, and met with Derek Dunn and Thomas Milovac the same evening to record it. This recording is of the first playthrough, with Thomas and Derek reading the score for the first time. Each 'iteration' was recorded in one take, and the three iterations appear here in the order in which they were performed.

No visual or verbal cues were given to signal the end of each phrase and the beginning of the next, nor any duration specified. The length of each phrase was determined only by our ears and collective intuition.

The score can be viewed here:

For a fun challenge, see if you can tell which musician is playing which page in each iteration!
