More About November 17th Event | 2+2=3 From Two Duos to One Trio

Live Music by Daniel Levin (cello), Melvin Bauer (drums), Laurent Estoppey (saxophone)

Duo #1: Laurent Estoppey + Daniel Levin

New album, SUMAC, out for release this week on ears & eyes records

Duo #2: Daniel Levin + Melvin Bauer

Playing together in duo and trio November 17, 18, 29, 20, 21 in Greensboro, Durham, Columbia SC, and Washington D.C.

Daniel Levin + Melvin Bauer have made music together in a variety of contexts, appearing in performance at Middleheim and Citadelic Festivals in Belgium, and in a range of venues throughout Portugal. This performance with Laurent Estoppey at Greensboro Performance Space will be the first stop on their US tour, which will culminate in live and studio recording sessions at Rhizome in Washington, DC, to gather material for their first duo record. Levin and Bauer endeavor to find through their improvisational practice, in the words of J. Krishnamurti, "freedom from the known". That is, they seek not to demonstrate evidence of their well-developed rapport and shared musical language in performance, but rather, to find new vistas unknown to them before manifesting them through the act of collective improvisation.
