Map of Trees
by R. Michael Wahlquist
A primal forest of notes and sounds emerges as the piano is explored inside and out in this freewheeling, improvisatory solo debut. Map of Trees is a concert-length set of 'comprovisations' for solo piano, exploring the limits of what it means to play the piano. Featuring the composer as improviser playing on the keys, inside the piano (with hands, combs, doorstops, mechanical pencils, etc.), and in duet with a laptop. The genre lines of jazz and classical tangle in a new, 21st-century jungle of music. Purchase at CD Baby or wherever fine music is sold online! View album artwork. View score/notes.
