Abstract
Trio Kamosc toured North America in the fall of 2005 which resulted in the cd, kamosc, being released by Montreal's Red Toucan label in May 2006. Wolter Wierbos who was with us on the same tour, playing solo trombone sets, makes a guest appearance on two tracks. The trio's music is based on improvisation to a great extent but also on written materials which serve as fuel, as signposts or as found objects - drawing on sources such as early jazz styles (imagine echoes of Jelly Roll Morton in an improvisatory context!), folkish melodies and contemporary chamber music. The music of Trio Kamosc exists somewhere in between these seemingly divergent stylistic areas and draws its inspiration from their inherent contradictory aspects. "Though Kaufmann contributes some idiomatic compositions, this is largely an album of impeccable improvised music. Granted, impeccability is a word not normally bandied about improvised music, mainly due to its privileging of a design sensibility. But, there is a sustained balance of input from each of the musicians that supports its use. This quality stems from their previous encounters in a string of closely related settings involving musicians based in Amsterdam and Vancouver. Kaufmann, Moore and van der Schyff have worked together in ensembles as large as a quintet, and as small as a duo. As a trio, they have enough space to maximize the effect of small details of dynamics and timbre; yet, in the more robust passages, they have a satisfyingly full sound. Additionally, their respective sensibilities as improvisers coalesce very well. Kaufmann’s playing has an underlying cool lucidity, whether he is playing soft fragmentary phrases or fast runs supported by strong, underpinning chords. Much the same can be said of Moore, who has an encyclopedic knowledge of tunes and styles which he can tap and reconfigure at any moment. van der Schyff’s playing is kaleidoscopic to the degree that one small shift in attack can produce a markedly different set of colors and rhythmic relationships." – Bill Shoemaker (Point of Departure) For compact discs please visit: www3.sympatico.ca/cactus.red/toucan/Creditsreleased April 15, 2006 Achim Kaufmann - piano Michael Moore - clarinet, alto saxophone Dylan van der Schyff - drums, percussion *Wolter Wierbos - trombone (tracks 3 & 11) Recorded by Dylan van der Schyff at Consolidated Works, Seattle, October 4, 2005 except for (1) recorded at Yardbird Suite, Edmonton, September 24 (5), (7), (8) at First Christian Church, Portland (OR), October 3 (9) at Arraymusic Studio, Toronto, September 27 (13) Recorded by Malachi Ritscher at Claudia Cassidy Theater (Chicago Cultural Center) on October 2

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
