Listen on:
In October of 2006 the Bloom Project performed at the Sudden Sound Series presented by the Krannert Art Museum in Champaign/Urbana at the University of Illinois while on their first tour through the heartland of the United States. The live CD recording features the Project signature wide ranging free group improvisations as well as some of the textual and graphical scores from their first album ‘Bloom’.
The album also features the debut sound recording of instrument inventor Steven Baker’s challis drone as a closing track recorded in Pacifica California in 2007.
- Thollem - piano
- Rent Romus - alto and soprano saxophone, flute
- Jon Brumit - drums, small objects
- Steven Baker - challis drone
Improv jazz trio of sax, drums, and piano. Nicely intense stuff that adds an aggression not found in ’70s free jazz.
