Eric Wubbels’s Chimeric Form follows Brahms and Ligeti’s path-breaking entries in the rarely attempted genre of the horn trio, treating the bizarre and acoustically ungainly combination of violin, french horn, and piano as a hybrid meta-instrument navigating a chaotic, polyglot, spliced-up and semi-self aware formal structure.

A virtuosic study in blend, sound color, and the flexibility of instrumental identities, Chimeric Form is preceded by an opening set by clarinettist and improviser Madison Greenstone (of TAK and Mundanas), featuring new solo material following up to their acclaimed 2023 release Resonance Studies in Ecstatic Consciousness.
