Gerry Hemingway joined and remained a member of the infamous Anthony Braxton quartet for eleven years from 1983-1994. This set documents their first recorded collaboration in 12 years.
Using an hourglass as a guide, each CD contains one 60-minute improvisation, and each improvisation is very different in character and instrumentation. These studio recordings were made at Wesleyan University in August 2007.
Released to celebrate Braxton’s 65th birthday, the recordings are packaged in cardboard slipcase with paper sleeves for the CDs. The 12-page booklet includes liner notes by Graham Lock, and is illustrated with copious photos from the recording session.
