L.E.O.
Music-making is a social art. Only in collective free improvisation is the social side of art integrated with the conceptual. The structure becomes the content: dialogue as interaction, the end as well as the means; a generative response that demands and developes new motifs to express new meanings; a constant process of re-definition;an ever-present ear to the needs of the moment.
(Edwin Prévost)

This group was originally assembled for the May 2001 V:NM Festival Graz/Austria.
The following year we were invited to play at the Konfrontationen 2002 in Nickelsdorf.
In December 2002 we organized two evenings of live concerts that were recorded. The finished CD was presented in a concert, November, 2003 at echoraum, Vienna, Austria.

The players:

Cordula Boesze (fl) studied flute in Vienna, founded the »böszes salonorchester« for the promotion of contemporary »Salonmusik« and loves to write »bösze« letters to the editor.
