Taken during soundcheck at the El Rey in Los Angeles, a chain snakes and dances its way over strings in Hauschka's piano:
(Note from Laurie: In May and June, Hilary and the prepared-piano artist Hauschka will tour together, presenting duo improvisation concerts to reflect the worldwide release of their recent recording, called Silfra.You can find that schedule right here, as the dates are announced. Next week we'll be giving away some of these CDs on V.com. )
TweetIt does!
It reminded of Igudesman and Joo's performance with the toothbrush :P
I'm really digging this collaboration!
Is that duct tape holding the chain in place?
In the studio we use gaffers tape, same stuff just a bit "better"!
