Artist description An experiment in unconventional improvisation, Stratosphere features the wide, sonic scope of the Chapman Stick intertwining with mutations of guitar and other instrumentation over a drum palate. Its goal is to communicate through the sound of the instrument in fragmented nonlinear fashion. It is the suggestion and simultaneous deconstruction of notes and chords, rhythms and melodies - music for the syntax of the mind and body.

Music Style improvisational, avant garde
