Music on the Knoll continues at the Weaverville Community Center on March 14 from 6:00-7:30 Presenting Chronology Music

As collaborators for 20 years, across multiple different groups and projects, Frank Southecorvo and Bryan White (formerly of Up Jumped Three) have developed a familiarity and language/approach to open/chord-free playing which feels natural and highly intuitive. Lyrical lines and commitment to space are sometimes difficult to resolve without chords or percussion, but this group of songs and the duo’s approach shows how comfortable it can be. It’s a discipline which takes time to refine, akin to 2 people having an in-depth conversation, with all of the tangents and subtexts which inevitably arise. The duo format allows the most intricate details of each instrument’s tone, and each player’s ideas, to bloom freely. The duo released its new album, ‘Stories We Tell’, on February 3rd and will play a selection of songs from the album, as well as other select material.
