Rosi Hertlein and David Arner began performing together in 2003 in the New Vanguard Series in Kingston, NY. Their New Vanguard duo performance In the Language of the Dream is available on the Deep Listening label as a digital download at http://www.deeplistening.org/site/releasesby/Arner as well as elsewhere online.
Rosi Hertlein was a member of Pauline Oliveros’ “New Circle Quintet,” Cecil Taylor’s “With Blazing Eyes and Opened Mouth,” Reggie Workman’s “African-American Legacy Project.” She played the Vision Festival with Joe McPhee twice, and has also collaborated with Howard Johnson and Jay Rosen.
David Taylor started his playing career as a member of Leopold Stokowski’s American Symphony Orchestra, and also appearing with the New York Philharmonic under Pierre Boulez. Almost simultaneously, he was a member of the Thad Jones Mel Lewis jazz band, and recorded with Duke Ellington (The New Orleans Suite), The Rolling Stones, and Blood, Sweat, and Tears. David Taylor and David Arner first played together in 2006.
David Arner recently performed his “An Invocation fro Hermes Twice Revealed,” for piano and harpsichord at EMPAC in Troy, N.Y.
His 4-CD boxed set, Spontaneous Suites for Two Pianos (RogueArt) with Connie Crothers has just been released. The online music journal Point of Departure describes the music as “… parallel journeying… evocative… each return to the music yields a different aural itinerary… comfortable with each other’s biorhythms and sense of space… exuberant… dramatic and physically demanding… introspective and intimate… it’s hard to get used to the idea that this is all spontaneously made rather than organized and in some measure pre-set. What has happened is that the two musicians have constructed a vivid, one-use-only musical language, a singleton rhetoric for duo playing that is entirely self-sustaining. Such a thing ought to be, if not forbidding, then at least exclusive, but there is real and deep pleasure in hearing two musicians of this caliber talking through the arcane and technical matter of their craft. Revelatory music.“
