Richard Teitelbaum was one of the first musicians to take the Moog synthesizer into free improvisation, from the days of Musica Elettronica Viva in Rome. Here he duets with Anthony Braxton on sopranino, alto and contrabass clarinet: Crossing was recorded live at the Creative Music Festival in Mount Tremper in June 1976, Behemoth Dreams a few months later at Bearsville Sound in Woodstock.
The synthesizer becomes a living partner, answering Braxton's lines with clouds of sound, pulses and swarms, the meeting point of the American free jazz scene and live electronic music. Produced by Michael Cuscuna and issued in 1977 by Arista in its Freedom series.
