MP3 SaReel Project - WORLD: World Fusion
12 MP3 Songs
WORLD: World Fusion, CLASSICAL: Contemporary
Details:
The Sa-Reel Project began as a collaborative effort between composer / performers Darryl Gregory and Sasha Bogdanowitsch and grew to include the talents of Peter Hadley and Justin Piccirillo. The ideal aspect of this collaborative ''avant-world'' ensemble is to explore the myriad sounds available to composers using instruments from around the world as well as common household items, junk and Western instruments.
This group of composers is moving on a path of total integration of styles: Bluegrass and Indonesian gamelan, Jazz structure and Indian improvisational techniques, Rock back-beat and African polyrhythms; nothing is sacred and why should it be? This is a project about the transmigration of styles and the surprising sounds and forms from four young composer / performers.
