Kory Reeder - In Place (2025)

Kory Reeder - In Place (2025)

BAND/ARTIST: Kory Reeder

Kory Reeder's 10th album, In Place, returns to the Grid Series, heard on 2 of the 4 tracks from his debut release on Edition Wandelweiser Records, Love Songs/Duets. In Place is the first release exclusively containing pieces from the Grid Series, featuring Reeder on piano with collaborators Kathleen Crabtree and Michael Moore on violas. Each track is a space to dwell on the edge of silence and collapse, with repeating tones. Influenced by Agnes Martin's "innocence of the grid," the Grid Series presents a collection of works that explore the intersection of structure and spontaneity. Each piece offers a unique balance between fixed frameworks and performer agency, employing text-based scores and graph-like notational grids. Echoing Martin's belief that beauty resides within the viewer, the Grid Series emphasizes the performer's experience and the listener's emotional memory, the "aura" of the piece. These works are open-ended and personal, inviting exploration rather than dictation. Through suggestive prose and intuitive navigation of pitch fields, the Grid Series resists traditional expectations of musical authorship, offering a reflective, spacious mode of performance grounded in intimacy, presence, and the poetic potential of silence and sound. The three compositions on In Place embody Reeder's approach to music-making, where structure and spontaneity coexist within a framework that emphasizes performer agency and introspection. Each piece contributes to a shared space of contemplation.
