Composer/guitarist David First will present Rocking Pipeline Witness Apologies to Dennis – a new drone-field work dedicated to the memory of his teacher Dennis Sandole, featuring Peter Zummo (trombone,) “Blue” Gene Tyranny (harmonically-tuned keyboards,) Christopher McIntyre (trombone) and First (guitar/laptop.) This work will continue First’s usual concerns with various species of acoustical and metaphysical phenomena as well as attempt to make amends for his oft-regretted irresponsibilities regarding his relationship with the legendary Sandole. The New York Times calls First “a fascinating artist with a singular technique,” and the Village Voice, “a bizarre cross between Hendrix and La Monte Young.”
