about

Volume 2: Solos and Sister-Pieces

Over the past five years of living in Texas, I have amassed a large body of work and I'm extremely excited to have a large body of recordings of that work. However, most of these recordings are archival and not something I have any intention of releasing commercially; many of them are from noisy concerts, reading sessions, rehearsals, or DIY recordings with friends. Still, I want to share this music with the world somehow and I figured the best way to do that would be to put it on my Bandcamp for free. That being said, I have over 10 hours of music in the archive, so I’ve decided to share this music in monthly installments of a more manageable size, curated into volumes based loosely on instrumentation. The first of these volumes was released on my 30th birthday, and will be released the 11th of every month until the end of the year.

The pieces from this volume are paired. On a Clear Day and Miya Ando are related pieces, but it's much easier to hear the relationship between Encore/Eulogy and this day that yawns like a caesura. Black and Grey is the one piece without a sibling, but a piece I felt went well with the collection. Look to the links below for more info on each piece.

Absolutely love this recording. I listen to it at work. I listen to it in the car on the way home from work. I listen to it while falling asleep. Curtis’ cello is so amazing. Just got the vinyl in the mail from Discogs the other day! Can’t wait to play on my hi-fi system! Dave Sewall
