Dicker/ Otte/ Schuette - Three Days

?Improvising trio Vaster than Empires (Allen Otte, Erica Dicker, and Paul Schuette) formed in Cincinnati where Dicker and Schuette were pursuing doctoral work, and Otte had been a pivotal staple of the new music scene for decades as a member of Percussion Group Cincinnati. The byproduct of their collaboration has been several years of poignant, fresh improvised music informed by their collective experience in many genres of music making. This album chronicles time they spent making music together during the summer of 2021 at Otte's home in the Ohio Valley.
