The One Big Song Group is a shared, lucid musical journey. Ernie Tollar and Paul Fitterer have been journeying, experimenting, and performing new music together since the mid-1980’s. Together, (along with John Gzowski) they formed the seminal Indie world music jazz group “Space Trio”. This spirit of adventurous co-creation, and improvisation continues today along with double bassist Wes Neal, and guitarist Mario Potestio.

The performance will include two sets of contiguous music, each containing compositions & improvised vignettes woven together as one story. The debut 2013 CD entitled “One Big Song” is such a sequence of overlapping & connected ideas. The two part program will share material that has evolved since the completion of the recording. (a second release is forthcoming in late 2015 early 2016) Prepared compositions, sonic treatments, pads, atmospheric drones, and intended improvisational vignettes are all part of the “One Big Song”.
