Notes:

Today is the Secret Forest Show, the annual performance which takes place deep in the woods inside Ravenna Park. This concert is staged each year as a collaborative event between bassist/composer John Teske and myself. This improvisation explored the deconstruction of my instrument in which I explored the horn in its fully constructed form, and eventually began pulling apart the instrumentâfirst taking off the neck, then the mouthpiece, leaving finally just my voice itself.
