Phillip Greenlief and Jon Raskin's 2+2 performs rare music of Steve Lacy:
For over 15 years, Greenlief and Raskin have explored playing with pairs of "like instruments" in their 2+2 project, producing nearly 100 concerts in west and east coast venues. The saxophonists now turn their gaze from free improvisation and graphic scores to the music of the great American composer Steve Lacy, pulling from hundreds of his compositions from notebooks dated from the 1950's to the 1990's. Many of these works have never been recorded. Greenlief (tenor) and Raskin on (baritone) will be joined by Scott Amendola on drums and electronics and Kjell Nordeson on drums.
