Eric Wubbels

Eric Wubbels / Charmaine Lee / Weston Olencki - Field of Action / contraposition (OOYH 013) is a split LP, and the continuation of a series of duo pieces for piano and other instruments that Wubbels has been pursuing since 2006. Field of Action is a composition in collaboration with vocalist and noise artist Charmaine Lee that grew out of the mutual desire for two musicians (Lee predominantly an improviser, and Wubbels primarily a creator and interpreter of written music) to find a shared zone in which to create. The resulting Field of Action is without parallel or easy comparison. contraposition was born of a similarly intense collaborative process between Wubbels and trombonist Weston Olencki, working together over months to develop and refine a singular world of sound and techniques for the trombone and prepared piano, which Wubbels then crafted into a four-movement tour-de-force of sonic creativity and expressive impact.
