Karl and bassist John Lindberg are teaming up, as they have on many occasions over many years, for a series of performances and educational residencies. They have a duo recording coming out on Between the Lines Records, a German label, which will be distributed internationally this spring. For information on their projects, contact maximalmusic@hv.rr.com.Karl and Ingrid have released a duet recording, which is a pilot for a series of CMS releases entitled Artists Create Recordings (ACR). The next one will be an album by CMS alumnus Sylvain Leroux, a world-musical (African) mix.
Karl is still arranging for some selected singer songwriters, through a company called wacbiz.com. You can download tracks of independent productions there, itunes style.
"So you see we are keeping busy," Karl says.
