Kurt Doles


Kurt Doles is an American composer and bass clarinetist. He is best known for his slow, quiet instrumental pieces which are frequently written for unusual groups of instruments. Sometimes associated with the group of postminimalist California-based composers represented on the Cold Blue record label run by composer Jim Fox, he has collaborated with musicians and Daniel Patrick Quinn on various improvised, electroacoustic ambient recording projects. Mercury, a collaboration with DAC Crowell, was released on Suilven Recordings.
