GALLERY 345, The Baker/Marshall Duo: May 2
GALLERY 345 presents the The Baker/Marshall Duo
Kye Marshall (cello) and Thomas Baker (piano) perform spontaneous compositions – created entirely in the moment.
Their music features an exciting blend of traditional and contemporary classical and jazz, pop, rock and world music along with environmental sounds. Their eclecticism serves to create dynamic spontaneous compositions which join together melody, dissonance, cacophony and rhythm. This style of improvised music allows the freedom to express an emotional intensity that is vital and electrifying.
