Site-Specific (Duets for Cello and Guitar)

RESTOCK. Ubiquitous Chicago cellist, whose name is familiar to many fans of modern music as he has worked with such artists as: BOXHEAD ENSEMBLE, FLYING LUTTENBACHERS, FREAKWATER, SUPERCHUNK, THE ALUMINUM GROUP, THE STYRENES and many others in addition to releasing several albums of improvised music in a variety of ensembles. Here he teams up with 12 different guitarists for improvised duets of cello & guitar. A project not too dissimilar in concept from DEREK BAILEY's "Playbacks" CD and one with similarly surprising results. Collaborators include: JIM O'ROURKE, MICHAEL KRASSNER, KEVIN DRUMM, MICHAEL ZERANG, JOHN CORBETT, BEN VIDA and others.
