A Spontaneous Breaking of Symmetry unfolds as a triptych spontaneously composed by Armen Nalbandian and Chris Corsano on August 29 2022.
The piano-drums duo is re-sculpted here in sound, concept and structure, as Corsano’s polyrhythmic, kaleidoscopic delivery meets Nalbandian’s emotive touch and vividly inventive phrasing. Through cyclicality, continuity and fractality, the recording is a study of sound not as expression but as a system for unraveling time.
