Reidemeister Move is Christopher Williams, contrabass, and Robin Hayward, tuba, a duo dedicated to exploring and expanding the possibilities of sustained-tone music in just intonation for their instruments. Drawing on Hayward's current doctoral research on a microtonal tuba he recently designed and developed together the instrument manufacturers B&S, and Williams' previous work with Charles Curtis and LaMonte Young's legendary Theatre of Eternal Music, Reidemeister Move seeks in both compositions and improvisations to develop a performance practice based on purely tuned intervals. At the same time, they also aim to develop a broader musical context for this material by connecting it to questions of noise, corporeal rhythms, and spatial resonance found in their other work.
