Recorded live at the Center for New Music and Audio Technologies, Berkeley, CA, September 17 & 19, 1998.

This is a truly unusual instrumentation, yielding remarkable results. The ensemble uses timbre - rather than basic harmony and melodic ideas - as the main building block for composition and improvisation. This because they are working in different tuning systems: Pauline Oliveros' accordion is tuned to just intonation, Dana's piano is in European tuning, and the shakuhachi is a notoriously difficult instrument to play "in tune" due to its construction and playing technique. On this date they are joined by veteran bassist Barre Phillips, who is credited on over 100 albums, many for the German ECM label.
