Wet Ink hydra trio performing hydra
at the St Peter's Church in New York.

hydra - a many headed snake whose heads grew back after they were cut off.

hydra tries to do everything that I do as a composer/performer in one work - notes on a page, electronic playback, acoustic and electronic improvisation, just intonation, and noise. Some of these heads were cut off years ago...now they are back! I wrote this piece for Josh Modney, Eric Wubbels, and me for our 2015 tour of the UK. The work was premiered in London and also performed in Birmingham and Manchester.

Wet Ink Ensemble:
Joshua Modney, violin
Eric Wubbels, piano
Sam Pluta, live electronics and playback
