Alvin Curran describes his intense, intensely playful and poetic solo performances as follows:
My solo performances are the musics that I was born with. (…) Today this form is one of my favorite ways of making music because it demands the the whole truth and nothing but! TransDadaExpress (excerpt 1 excerpt 2), Endangered Species (excerpt), and The Alvin Curran Fake Book are the latest titles I give to such concert performances, where I feature a spontaneous mix of piano (Diskklavier where available), keyboard sampler, processors, voice, horns and other small instruments. These are always 45-90 minute unpredictable "exercises" in rigor and anarchy, where the extreme minimal and maximalisms meet; where the music is always on a wacky rollercoaster ride inside a temple.
