Featuring multiple Grammy Award winning soprano Estelí Gomez (of Roomful of Teeth) and musicians from New York-based piano/percussion quartet Yarn/Wire, this EP consists of two pieces that complement each other perfectly as two sides of a 10" record or a short digital album. We See the Flying Bird, for two percussionists, was written for Ian and Russell from Yarn/Wire and features resonant metal and pulsating vibrant textures. Five Songs, written for Estelí, is a series of five miniature vocalises accompanied by percussion and Fender Rhodes.

“With Julius, he was based in repetition, but here was a spirit of openness and improvisation. His scores, if they were written out that way, were often like jazz scores. He loved multiplying instruments – four pianos, ten cellos – so there was a real feeling of the presence of the instrument, not just using an instrument in some kind of equation, as a means to an end.” ~ Mary Jane Leach
