Program Notes

The term “cold pressed” refers to the method of extracting olive oil which results in the most robust and full-bodied flavor. Syncopation, contrasting timbres and rock-influenced style are blended together in music which is vivid, spicy and obsessively persistent. Cold Pressed is set up as a modified drum set with timbral notation, meaning each instrument is assigned a pitch and arranged like a keyboard. If you read keyboard music well, learning the notation will be a piece of cake.
