"Improvisation is maybe too general a word to describe the musical approach used in this concert. Thinking-with-feeling-at-the-piano (contemplating, commenting, investigating sound with and without meaning or allusions, obsessing, and so on) is perhaps more to the point. Specific techniques are being collected in the on-going piece called The Time-Transposing Pianist. ... 'Blue' Gene Tyranny, composer and pianist of avant-garde music, has toured extensively in solo and group concerts throughout the U.S., Europe, Canada, Mexico and Brazil. He also played in teenage rock bands and for a gospel church. He has composed over fifty works for electronic, instrumental and vocal ensembles, over thirty film and video soundtracks, and fifty scores for dance and theatre productions."
