Eugene Martynec (electroacoustics), Bill McBirnie (flute), Bill Gilliam (piano) are very excited to present our next Art of Improv show featuring our special guest composer and performer Gayle Young at Annette Studios.

Gayle will perform two short pieces on the Amaranth and solo improvisations. One of them will include lithophone stones. She will also play improvisations that include Eugene Martynec, Bill McBirnie and Bill Gilliam in different configurations. Her improvisations place interaction among musicians in the foreground of a listener’s experience, when sounds and textures are echoed, shared, and extended.
