Schenk's approach is rooted in spontaneity, often blurring the lines between composition and improvisation. He utilizes unconventional structures, allowing each performance to act as a unique conversation rather than a fixed presentation. This method encourages an organic flow of ideas, where each note feels like a response to the previous one, creating a dynamic interplay that challenges traditional listening experiences.
