‘So lang dem Wasser Helle nicht gebricht’

so long as the water’s clarity remains intact


a short section (where the above words occur) from Schubert’s song Die Forelle - The Trout

looped by the brass and woodwind in time with their own breathing.

two pianists - male and female - improvise on the piano, starting from the same theme,

being audible in the silences.

October 4th 2009 at Cafe Oto,

with Alison Blunt and Alexander Hawkins at the piano.
