Solo trumpet, prepared flugel horn, laptop electronics, pedals, amplifier Allotrope: Any of two or more physical forms in which an element can exist --- diamond and graphite are allotropes of carbon (Macquarie Dictionary). Electroacoustic adventures created using the trumpet, flugel horn, laptop electronics, amplifier and pedals. Allotrope is a solo project from multidisciplinary Melbourne composer and trumpeter Peter Knight. It continues, albeit tangentially, Peter’s preoccupation with space, understatement, and long form structure and draws inspiration from diverse sources. "If trumpet is an element then Peter Knight is an alchemist" New York City Jazz Record review
