with questions or concerns. _Hailed figuratively as the “Father of
Minimalism,” the revered composer and multi-instrumentalist TERRY
RILEY IS THE _literal_ father of electric and acoustic guitarist
Gyan, whom _The New Yorker_ has praised as “a one-man
American-music machine, amicably ranging across the fields of jazz,
world music, and post-minimalism.” In their duo performances, the
elder RILEY CONTRIBUTES HIS OWN ROBUST ECLECTICISM, delving into
classical minimalism, jazz, Indian ragas, and other musical currents
on acoustic piano, electronic keyboards, and vocals. The result is a
“series of joyously ramshackle improvisations…like Bach doing
bebop” (_Guardian_).
