Swirling Waters :: A Free Improvisation - J Kyle Gregory, Trumpet, Bill Koehler, Double Bass

Swirling Waters is a free improvisation based on melodic groups that are passed between the trumpet and bass. The effect is like that of a dialogue that waxes and wanes as the piece unfolds. Swirling waters is included on our album entitled H.I. Human Intelligence. The album title was chosen as a reaction to the added control that A.I. will impart in our lives. We must always continue to remember what it means to be human and to act by expressing ourselves in creative ways. The genre of free improvisation provides a safe haven for expression in the true present moment as a call to “be there, now.” J Kyle Gregory and Bill Koehler first met as fellow music graduate students at Indiana University in the mid 1980s. Our second rendezvous happened in the mid 1990s as we both realized we were music professors at nearby Illinois Universities. At that time, we first discovered our unity as kindred spirits in free improvisation. We got together regularly to practice, record, and present some concerts together. Our unfolding paths diverged when Kyle moved to Europe in 1998. Now, 25 years later our paths crossed for the third time in 2023, and as fate would have it, we again live an hour away from each other! Once again we are celebrating the musical and personal affinity that makes creative collaboration such a precious pleasure for us and we hope also for you as listeners!! As always, we hope you enjoy the music! If so, please subscribe, post a comment, and share the music! We will respond!
