As Stuart Broomer writes in his notes, the new Nabatov's recording
consists of two solo recordings made 18 years apart, the first a
selection of Thelonious Monk compositions from 1995, the second a
concert from 2013 in which Nabatov first employed electronic technology
in performance to create a pitch-bending, - expanding and - fracturing
double of the piano. The result is a recording that explores time in
multiple ways, whether looking at decades or cycles per second, treating
the experience of chronological time as both malleable substance and a
special kind of consciousness.
