Saxophonist and composer Nick Zoulek presents his debut album, Rushing Past Willow. For this release, Zoulek refines the saxophone sound and brings his intense dedicated research to the wider world. His works for solo alto, tenor and bass saxophones were originally improvised movements which were refined over ten years of performances. Zoulek utilizes repetition, vocal techniques, unconventional articulation, and circular breathing to break past the traditional sounds of the saxophone. These recordings were made with an array of carefully placed microphones at live performances.
