“Ambient organs beautifully filtered and resounded through the space, so bittersweet that even the sounds of construction, the chattering and laughter, the barking of unruly dogs became not distractions but part of the event’s holism. A power tool sounded twice with a mournful cry that was so in tune and so well-timed it took me a moment to realize it was not part of the composition.”

“It pierces the listener’s microcosm like a meteor shower, raining with bright sparks, followed by melting blurry arcs of light in the twilight sky.”

“If the cover suggests that drone is also a matter of space, and if we take into account the rich history that noise and even new age have when it comes to rooting sounds to places, then the conception of music as perception-altering, as inherently psychedelic, could come into play as drones wash over our eyes with myths (“The Cailleach and the Ewe”) and juxtapositions (“Composition II” – one would assume musical, but which could also very well be pictorial, even sculptural) of spaces we commonly understand as neutral. No longer such, the transmutation begins, and we listen to the mountains hum with mathematical equations, the rotation of the earth in symbols as powerful as those of deities, creating movements within mysteries.”

Wonderful review of the Seattle show by S. Hache
Hello Family & Friends, I am in involved in this epic production with local theater company Saint Genet. If you have a couple bucks to send up for our fundraising campaign by tomorrow evening that would be great. We need another $3K in pledges to keep any of the $17K pledged so far. Thank you thank you. xoxoxo
