Details:
"In improvised music, the ability to stay outside of one''s comfort
zone is of great importance. Doing so means letting go of one''s ego,
and trying to approach each instance of music making from a fresh
perspective--a clean slate if you will. Accepting the fragility,
risks, uncertainty, and inherent "dangerousness" of these unknown
musical situations opens one up to the possibility of failure.
However, in the end, it is also what enables one to become a better
musician.
Maryclare is in that elite category of musician that refuses to box herself
in. She favours risk in her music making, and has no fear of leaving
her bag of "tricks" at home in her search for the unfamiliar. She
approaches her instruments as if she was meeting an old friend for the
first time. Fully aware of all the intricacies and nuances of her
materials, MC nonetheless adopts a stance that forces her to
reconsider all previous viewpoints and expectations.
She freely makes use of every musical genre as an expressive vehicle
for her artistic voice. Her boundaries and allegiances are fluid and
everchanging.
Antoine Berthiaume, November 2010"
