My Take
Aaron Novik is the sort of musician I find quietly fascinating: a San Francisco composer and clarinetist who carves out a whole sonic world from the low end. The very existence of Edmund Welles, a bass clarinet quartet, tells you he prefers curiosity over convention, and that 2004 Chamber Music America grant confirms the work has weight beyond novelty. Add visual art to the mix and you get an artist comfortable moving between sound and shape. I respect creators who chase a specific personal aesthetic instead of broad fame, and Novik strikes me as exactly that kind of patient, deliberate craftsman worth a careful listen.
