Defined by human activities, places are ever-changing, ever-decaying, and always being reborn, often through collective action and collaboration. From Space to Place features projects from local, national and international artists and designers that reexamine place and one's relationship to it. The projects are a result of collaborative and individual efforts to interpret and investigate the phenomena of place and placemaking—the transformation of a space into that which has a distinct identity.

Last month I gave the premiere of two new works which now have recordings online! The first was Jeremy Wagner's ...auf einer grunen aue... for two baritone saxophones which I played with Alex Richards at the CMW concert in the Ted Mann Concert Hall, and the second was Ted Moore's is himself no more for tenor saxophone and super collider which was on the RenegadeEnsemble concert series Into the Woods at Studio Z!

Alex Richards and I will be playing a concert together next Saturday, May 11 at 2PM at the University of Minnesota. It will feature Louder than Words by Don Freund, Caravan by Tanya Anisimova and Dark Rain by Andy Scott. Dark Rain, a double concerto for two saxophones and wind ensemble, will be performed in a reduced version for piano, bass and drum set! Leah Siltberg (p), Lewis Heald (b), and Jeremy Johnston (d) will be helping us out!
