The Ingalls/Perkis/Djll/Walton quartet, featuring
Matt Ingalls on clarinet, Scott Walton on contrabass,
Tom Djll on trumpet and
Tim Perkis on analog and digital electronics.
Comprising four of the most thoughtful and innovative improvising musicians in the Bay Area, this quartet has been honing their sound through regular rehearsals for a number of years, with only a handful of performances. This is a rare opportunity to hear this unique group in action. Synthesizing many of the recent styles of contemporary music into a surprisingly unified and fresh approach to free improvisation, the group creates dynamic and sonically-rich textures, often with rapid changes and always with a touch of humor.
"I'm excited about this group." -T. Perkis.
(Me too -T. Duff.)
