Edition Redux
Better A Rook Than A Pawn

AUDIOGRAPHIC RECORDS  |  AGR-021  |  CD  |  Limited Edition
Music performed and improvised by-

Lily Finnegan: drums
Beth McDonald: tuba and electronics

Edition Redux had its first rehearsal on March 29th, 2023. During a seven-date April tour in the States following those initial meetings, the group became a creative machine, each concert leading to new acuity regarding the music and how it can be performed.  The quartet transformed from a new project to a full-fledged band during that process, enabling the group to record all 17 pieces from the book in first takes at Experimental Sound Studio on April 25th. That creative arc is more than extraordinary and was made possible because of the ongoing innovation and insight that Erez Dessel, Lily Finnegan, and Beth McDonald put into the music.
