SOLO SAXOPHONE: TIMES & SPACES Solo saxophone double album Times & Spaces is a artistic statement and exploration into the world of improvisation. The album consists of two discs, one with acoustic expression and the second one with live-electronics which connects tenor saxophone´s acoustic expression with immense possibilities of live-electronics. With live-electronics Pietilä creates diverse atmospheres and musical ambients. Pietilä exploits the use of live-electronics e.g. with motion censors and other controllers to tweak sounds etc. Times & Spaces is the second solo saxophone album of Pietilä.
