Chrystalline by François Houle & Daniel Janke
François Houle (clarinet) and Daniel Janke (piano) met in Berlin, Germany, and connected a few months later to make this recording. This spontaneous collaboration between two accomplished improvised music creators is exciting and fresh.
Pianist and composer Daniel Janke is an eclectic musician, crossing styles and genres. He is an innovator on prepared and improvised piano. Daniel has composed music for NAC Touring Ensemble, Penderecki String Quartet, Standing Wave Ensemble, Toronto Symphony, Vancouver Symphony, NEM, and Bozzini String Quartet to name a few. He composed the score for Subconscious Password, short-listed for an Oscar award [NFB, 2014]. His recording Celestial Blue with violinist Mark Fewer [2016, Centrediscs] was nominated for a Western Canada Music Award. https://danieljanke.com/
