This may well end up getting moved to the fail thread, but I'm trying to cast my net as far and wide as possible and figured there is a fairly wide ranging bunch of folks who come here so thought it would be worth a shot.

I'm after a contrabassoon player to join my trio Jecklin.(double bass and percussion)The music takes the form of directed improvisations.
It can get very textural and reliant on bass frequencies (hence why I'm after a contrabassoon)

Although improvised this isn't jazz.
A knowledge of contemporary music and extended technique is a good starting point.
An ability to coax some filthy sounds from your instrument would be great.

We rehearse in Herne Hill (SE24).
Ongoing recording and performances from september.

Full details on request.

or try pm, I haven't been able to get them yet though as I'm new to these parts.

Cheers
Thomas

PS if there is anyone who lives with a musician or music student who plays a very big bassy wind instrument consisting of lots of wooden pipes joined together in a paperclip shape I'd be very grateful if you could pass on a link to this etc.
