Roscoe Mitchell / Michele Rabbia - IN 2

Roscoe Mitchell and Michele Rabbia are made for each other, because they've always made everything audible in their respective music and improvisations. The materials their instruments are made of; the bodies, gestures and movements that breathe life into them; the ideas and visions that guide them or lead them astray; the systems of play and thought they freely use; their imaginations. You can hear everything on the percussion of one, the slightest contact, the slightest clash, the slightest impact, and meteor showers on the resonant skins, on the resonant metals. The other's saxophones are like horns of plenty: the slightest breath, the slightest murmur, the slightest clamor, the scratches and welts. Together, they redefine the form and content of duets and dialogue, what exactly is a network connection and a disconnection; they rethink all forms of communication in music, from those that pass almost unnoticed to those that encompass and pierce us.
