This is the album release show Patchwork never had back in 2020 and a reunion after taking several years off as a duo. Patchwork’s music collectively spans the gamut when it comes to sonic possibilities for saxophone and drum set. There are tastes, and even full servings, of prog rock, free jazz, noise, microtonal tuning, and much more.
All of the music was commissioned by and written specifically for Patchwork and three of the pieces are on the duo's self-titled album, released on New Focus Recordings.
