A Musical Duo with Paul Mimlitsch and Richard Ball

Exploring the Boundaries of Music

Paul and Richard met at a jam session a couple years ago and found an immediate musical commeraderie based on exploration and improvisation. Paul explains it as "painting with sound... throwing sound onto a canvas and seeing what comes out."

The original explorations of Concept involved a soundscape base created by looping layers of guitar sounds over which the two improvised. This is documented in their 2007 CD "Conversations." (See Recordings page for sound samples from this project.)

Recently Paul and Richard have been exploring a much more 'acoustic' approach to their improvisations. Paul has been playing a 12-string baritone guitar and classical guitars, and recent recordings have included percussion played by Richard.

Paul and Richard can be found playing widely in the Evergreen, Denver and Boulder areas.
