Myra Melford - piano
Hamid Drake – drums
Another duet, another premiere: for the first time these two internationally renowned American avant-gardists appear in a musical dialogue. Myra Melford, described by the San Francisco Chronicle as "an explosive player, a virtuoso who shocks and soothes, and who can make the piano stand up and do things it just doesn't seem to have been designed for," does all of this alongside Hamid Drake, who was "among the first American drummers to seriously study the percussion music traditions of other musical cultures" (jazz-fun) and is widely considered to be "one of the best percussionists in improvised music" (Drummerworld ).
