    Marcin and Bartlomiej Oles, two Polish twin brothers of Jewish origin, decided they would record their compositions, written for oboe/English horn, bassoon, cello, double bass and drums, with the best musicians in the world able to improvise on those instruments: Michael Rabinowitz on bassoon, Erik Friedlander on cello, and... myself on oboe and English horn. We recorded this CD while on tour in Poland, in 2004.
    Creation 2004-2005.
