Between Systems

Between Systems reimagines the boundaries of modern classical performance by refracting the early piano works of John Cage and Morton Feldman through a vivid sound world of synthesizers, live processing, and electronic textures. Blurring fidelity and transformation, the album expands the role of the classical interpreter into one of bold experimentation and sonic reinvention.
