A collection of unusual and compelling collaborations developed in 1992-1993 by Toronto composer/performer Sarah Peebles, and a wide-ranging selection of Tokyo-based artists: Takashi Harada (ondes Martenot), Kazue Mizushima (sound installation/performance), Kô Ishikawa and Hiromi Yoshida (shô), and Ikuo Kakehashi (percussion). The works on this CD represent a variety of styles ranging from written composition, to "comprovisation" and performance-art, to pure improvisation.
