Dana Jessen and Taylor Brook
b'
Bassoonist Dana Jessen and composer Taylor Brook team up for a collaborative album length electro-acoustic work, Set, that combines through composed (Songs) and improvised sections.
\\nMuch attention in the the composed sections is devoted to an exploration of a range of extended techniques on the bassoon that Jessen has cultivated.
\\nThe improvised sections are framed by guidelines and rules that Brook provided and computer improvisation that accompanies the instrumental soloist. In these ways, the boundaries between composer and performer is blurred.
