Re: Looper flutist?
I can confirm this! I saw Tim Weisberg at Wake Forest Univ. in 1976 on a
tour for "Twin Sons of Different Mothers", done with Dan Fogelberg. In
the
show Tim did a number of pieces using some sort of tape loop: the first I
remember with the spinning and dancing, the second sounded so much like
Bach
it was incredible. Wonderful layering, and EXCELLENT timing on Tim's part
with the looping.
