about

A solo performance in 4 sets, centered around different philosophical concepts, on two of Quetzal's three most common instruments, soprano saxophone and bass clarinet, showcasing a good deal of extended techniques as well as some sudden moments of clarity and tranquility, and even some strict adherence to pre-organized linguistic concepts in the vein of creative music.

"I have nothing poignant to say this time. After the concert, I was talking to some friends about the time David Lynch said "the movie is the talking" and I'd just like to echo that sentiment here.
One other thing I felt worth mentioning was that I'd like to see this as the Indent of my discography, a framework on which to build further solo works."
-Quetzal

The music was recorded live on the night of November 15th, 2023 at the Grand Café in Szeged, Hungary, and the cover photo was shot at the concert.
