Improvised music salon
Every few months we bring together a group of interesting, and interestingly contrasting, musicians to play together for a few hours, and then have dinner and talk about music and ideas.
We make a loose plan or theme for our improvisation, or decide not to plan.
Hosts John and Niav play modular synth and whatever occupies a useful space in that particular grouping of musicians and instruments.
These are mixed but mostly unedited recordings of the salons. Check out the clips we’ve selected, or just put it on “from the top” while you do other stuff.
If a section strikes you as interesting, please leave a comment!
