Faint Suite – Pedro Rebelo (2007)
This work is a collection of electroacoustic miniatures originally composed for the double CD release of the Faint trio with Pedro Rebelo (piano), Franziska Schroeder (saxophones) and Steve Davis (drums). The trio was formed in 2007 and aims to explore the thresholds between jazz and contemporary music through improvisation. The electroacoustic miniatures presented here are based on the original instrumental recordings and act as short compositional statements derived from spontaneous musical materials.
