Duane Pitre - Feel Free: Live At Cafe OTO Duane Pitre

This live ensemble performance of Duane Pitre’s Feel Free features James Blackshaw on hammered dulcimer. The LP is pressed in an audiophile-grade edition of 1,000 copies.

Shortly after releasing Feel Free, Pitre opened his 2012 European solo tour with an ensemble performance of the piece at London’s Café OTO. Jesse Sparhawk was the only player in the ensemble who had performed the composition before. The rest were English musicians playing it for the first time.

With this new line-up, Feel Free takes on different shapes and energies from those of the studio recording.
