Background
Inspired by the image of winds and wood flying through the air, Ricardo Climent and Paul Wilson conceived The Tornado Project: a set of commissioned works for flute, clarinet and computer-generated sound, to be performed by American wind virtuosi Esther Lamneck (clarinet) and Elizabeth McNutt (flute). 

Composer Russell Pinkston has completed a new trio work specially written for Elizabeth McNutt (flute), Esther Lamneck (clarinet) and computer, to enriche even more the Tornado-Project’s repertorie.
His new piece entitled e++ is scheduled for premier at SEAMUS 2010 and will be performed alongside another Paul Wilson‘s tornado piece ‘Beneath the surface‘.
