about

From the liner notes by Kyle Motl:

Improvised music is necessarily a result of various relationships across space and time; watching development in the music is in some way the same as observing the growth and development of interpersonal relationships.
Transformation of one is indeed the transformation of all.
Nathan Hubbard and I have played together in various formations for nearly 9 years now, in formats including duo, trio with Peter Kuhn, and varied ensembles playing our own and others' compositions. The first time I met Dan Clucas must have been at a concert by Dependent Origination - Peter Kuhn, Dan Clucas, Dave Sewelson, Scott Walton, and Alex Cline. By that time, Nathan and I had been regularly playing with Peter; the seeds for this recording had been planted.
In the following years, Dan played with the Kuhn Trio a handful of times, the first time - if memory serves me accurately - at Bread and Salt in San Diego. Later, Dan would invite Nathan and I to play on his large ensemble composition After Upingos at the Beginning to End fest in Los Angeles.
When, in 2021, I planned a return to California for a few months, one of the firstthings I wanted to do was play a session with Dan and Nathan. Though moments of trio playing occurred in the previous settings, this recording is the first explicit trio outing of the group. The first track herein contains the first notes we played together in just over 2 years; it was like coming home.
Music, particularly the improvised variety, involves transformation on all levels.Musical materials themselves transform and develop locally on the scale of individual sounds and phrases and on a macro scale in terms of large scale form within a performance or set, or, even wider scale: a work's or group's identity in/through time. The musical event is a social ritual where people and relationships are changed through participation in the work and in being together.
