about

DP ARCHIVAL RELEASE 005 =======

"ED09: Live at ISSUE Project Room" (2009) is previously unreleased; "ED09: Live at The Stone" (2009) was previously released on LP by Basses Frequencies; "ED09: Live at Roulette" (2008) was previously released on CD-R by Quiet Design.

ED09 is a rule-based, long-tone composition by Duane Pitre. The work's score calls for 12 or more performers from the String and Wind categories, along with the possible addition of bowed electric guitar (played by the composer).

The composition has morphed in a natural manner since Pitre starting experimenting with its fundamental concepts in 2005. And while a portion of the current score (revised in 2008/2009) instructs the performers to execute specific notated pitches that coincide with conducted hand-signs, the remainder allows the performers to make minor decisions based on a structure consisting of set playing methods, technique restrictions, fixed pitch classes, and spontaneous conduction—resulting in slow-shifting permutations of a single chord over a long duration.

Essentially, the score enables all of the performers to approach this planned improvisation in the same manner, thus creating a group of musicians that thinks and plays as a cohesive unit. The result is a piece of music that is focused, yet fluid, minimal, yet dense—yielding a sound that is not unlike slow-motion chamber music.

Cantus, Descant
by Sarah Davachi

Eerie, expansive, and breathtaking. This is ambient drone on an epic scale. The effect that some of these pieces have when they abruptly end is shattering -- these sounds become a part of your consciousness, and when they drop away, you're left in silence more intense than you've ever felt.

Performances & Recordings 1998-2018
by Charles Curtis

Is the sound of any instrument more profound than that of the cello in the hands of a master? (Well, maybe the viola da gamba.) Here is exquisite cello music from the 14th to the 21st centuries played by Charles Curtis, including four compositions of his own. "Unfinished Song" will make you a believer. John Simms
