Description
A melting pot of rhythms, melodies and sonic textures that promises to be as upöifting to the general listener as it is challenging to the musicians who endeavor to dissect its complex rhythms. A work of poetic beauty.
Four frame drums, trombone and violin. Inspired by ancient frame drumming traditions, Glen Velez and Handance create a pan-global rhythmic style drawing on the music of South India, the Middle East, and Central Asia. Rhythmcolor Exotica explores the terrains created by rhythmic cycles of 4,5,7 and even 41 beats. This inventive urban drum clan dazzles with its virtuosity, and with the playful melodic inventions of Art Baron on trombone. Add in tinwhistle, didgeridoo, shaker and conch and you have a one-of-a kind trancy, jazzy, border-crossing celebration. The frame drums played on Rhythmcolor Exotica include Moroccan bendir, North African mazhar and tar, Egyptian riq, and Celtic bodhrán
with Arthur Baron, Jan Hagiwara, Eva Atsalis, Yousif Sheronick
