Les Trois Lynx Roux - [excerpt from 2nd piece]

Montréal-based trumpeter Émilie Fortin had a few extra days in town after her Bakarlari collective played the Music Gallery, so cellist Cory Harper-Latkovich assembled this grouping. He showed an obvious sense of delight in having a chance to introduce Fortin and percussionist Germaine Liu to each other — two deeply inventive players who also approach their work with a lot of playful joy and laughter. The resultant ruckus indeed had some excited whistles and swells, but also plenty quiet drone'n'squeak.

[Track Could Bend's previously-planned fifth anniversary celebration will obviously not be happening. Keep an eye out at the series' FB page for news of things re-emerging when the gathering-together status has changed.]
