Nine new compositions pushing the boundaries of instrumental virtuosity. From the lyricism of Air to Mir, commissioned by the Library of Congress, the textures of Spin X for two basses and two percussionists, to the virtuosity of his own solo bass music and more, Marinade displays the full range of Mark Dresser's compositional vision. A nine year veteran of the Anthony Braxton Quartet and a vital member of the downtown scene, collaborating with Tim Berne, Diamanda Galas and many others, Mark Dresser has been a creative force in new music for over twenty years.
