“This was a concert that took place days after breaking my thumb while running on ice in Brooklyn. I had my hand in a specially-formed cast that allowed me to hold my horn. The tour itself was mostly arranged around the first European performances of Éliane Radigue’s OCCAM X, with the De Ruimte show being the only chance to improvise freely amongst a number of very specific, very stressful shows. I had been exploring certain elements of an idea I later called COYOTE, which involves using the body and speech to amplify the story-telling possibilities of solo performance. This is a good example of those early experiments, loose and a bit profane.” -Nate Wooley
