"Avoiding the Answers" (2013) is a work that involves two parts, one performed live and the other acting as a backing track. The backing track features Kathryn Ladano on bass clarinet with effects, such as a long reverb, added. The live part is fully improvised. While the performer can play whatever they wish for the live part, it is important to complement the backing track and fill in the many open spaces within the texture. This recording was made March 30, 2021, at The Registry Theatre in Kitchener, Ontario.
