"Comparing, let's say, to classical music or jazz or even traditional kind of improv music, our kind of music is less going from start until the end, from A to Z. I understand music much more as a field, as a canvas or even as a space. And I can move forward, can go back again, can change the directions. For me it's like shifting around the space, the canvas. Putting texture there, colour there, a line in this place, repeat this line in another angle, in another corner of the canvas. That's how I understand this music".

NEW RELEASE: KENNETH KIRSCHNER March 20, 2007 et al



MD 2
Released: September 24, 2008

"If you look at just about any period in my work, you'll find pieces that are totally focused on piano, or that are all about piano-type thinking, and then you'll find pieces right next to them that have nothing to do with piano at all, that are all about escape from the piano, escaping from that mode of thought, into a world of insects, or particles, or strange forces or other planets. This is one of those long-term themes that runs through my work, this constant push and pull, back and forth, to and from the piano. And it's certainly true of my recent work as well. So while I wouldn't say that I'm moving away from using piano as a source, I would certainly agree that this tension is one of those key dynamics that animates what I'm doing".
