Novas da EMANEM
... A partir de 14 de Março:
CLIVE BELL & SYLVIA HALLETT - 'The Geographers' (2004) - EMANEM 4112 65 minutes.
Following their 2004 FREEDOM OF THE CITY festival performance (heard on EMANEM 4215), Clive Bell and Sylvia Hallett went into the studio to record some more improvisations. Bell used Cretan pipes, harmonica, khene, pi saw, shakuhachi, stereo goathorns and a whirling bat drum, while Hallett used anklung, bicycle wheel, electronics, mbira, sarangi, saw, viola, violin and voice. Between them they created a very exotic sound world.
ANTHONY BRAXTON & MILO FINE 'Shadow Company' (2004) - EMANEM 4113 66 minutes.
Anthony Braxton invited Milo Fine to travel half way across the USA so they could make some music together for the very first time. The result was the extended free improvisation (with gaps) which is heard complete on this CD. Braxton used four saxophones, and Fine two clarinets, piano and drums.
ROGER SMITH & LOUIS MOHOLO-MOHOLO ‘The Butterfly and the Bee’ (2004) - EMANEM 4114 71 minutes.Following the success of their very first performance together at the 2004 FREEDOM OF THE CITY festival (heard on EMANEM 4215), Roger Smith and Louis Moholo-Moholo went into the studio to record some more. Their second meeting went so well that they recorded enough duo improvisations for a complete CD. The resulting music is heard complete, with Smith on Spanish guitar and Moholo on augmented drum set.
