The 4 plus 1 Ensemble's second CD, 'From A Window' is on Avant. Contrary to rumor, Julian Priester DOES play on it, and Skerik as a special guest. Julian was sick and could not go on a tour of Europe, but he recovered and recorded the CD as well as appearing in the group's appearances last year. If 'From A Window' isn't available from your local shop, it's easily available at Amazon, or at DMG I imagine, or I'd be willing to sell you one at very attractive price via Wayne's website, www.waynehorvitz.com. Unfortunately Wayne's website is down right at the moment - technical difficulties. I expect to have it running again by tomorrow though. Dave

I believe there was a second cd released by '4 in 1' the partly electronic chamber jazz ensemble led by keyboard player Wayne Horvitz. It had saxophonist Skerik instead of trombonist Julian Priester, who was ill by the time, and violist Eyvind Kang.

I witnessed a gig by this specific group in 2000, and it had Eyvind Kang all over the place. Very minimal, very intense bowing. When I see the cd in the shops, I will definitely buy it.
