RTD3 features
Ron Heglin, voice and trombone;
Tom Nunn, elctroacoustic percussion; and
Doug Carroll, cello. This SF Bay Area trio is dedicated to free improvisation. Drawing upon influences in classical and jazz domains, their sound is unique and imaginative. Their sonic landscapes propel the listener into a world of sound that is enigmatic, fanciful and chimeric. http://ronheglin.com/music.html
Gino Robair has performed and recorded with Tom Waits, Anthony Braxton, John Zorn, Nina Hagen, Terry Riley, Lou Harrison, John Butcher, Derek Bailey, Peter Kowald, Otomo Yoshihide, and the ROVA Saxophone Quartet. He is one of the "25 innovative percussionists" included in the book Percussion Profiles (SoundWorld, 2001), as well as a founding member of the Splatter Trio and Pink Mountain. His opera, I, Norton, based on the life of Norton I, Emperor of the United States, has been performed throughout North America and Europe. http://www.ginorobair.com/
Garnered from the group Sextet, the trio of Kristian Aspelin (guitar), Tony Dryer (bass), and Jacob Lindsay (clarinets) explores cyclic harmonic structures and other sound possibilities in the post-post free music continuum.
