C is for

Hannah Lash just sent me this recording of Paul Kerekes and I performing her blistering piano/vibraphone duo C at a New Music New Haven concert last November.  Hannah says that "C is a piece about the expansion of material in a motor-like, additive process.  Its anchor and beginning are the C-octaves, which spin out of the rest of the material in relentless perpetual motion."  To me, the overlapping rhythmic groupings in the piano and vibraphone create a dense harmonic texture that gradually comes in and out of focus throughout the piece . Enjoy!
