Album NL on Ooyevaer Disk Production label
Jazz (Free Jazz, Free Improvisation, Experimental)
Works for solo Saxophone recorded in Amsterdam, June 14 & 15, 1984. Additional material was recorded Scheveningen, January 13, 1985. The ‘art of erasure’ is a set of pieces for saxophone-solo, developed rather than composed in the traditional way, during its performances between 1982-1984. Although I have been performing incidentally as a soloist for the past 10 years, my solo concert at the 1982 CLAXON. Festival in Utrecht was a starting point for a more serious concentration on this subject. Since then the music has gradually grown to the its present form, as represented on this album. The title of the entire work ‘The art of erasure’ is a reference to the process of selecting ideas and to present them in their purest form, without any adornment that could lead away from the basic subject. - Luc Houtkamp
