Ernesto Rodrigues-viola

Rhodri Davies-harp, electronics, Stephane Rives-soprano saxophone, Guilherme Rodrigues-cello, Carlos Santos-electronics

Quote
A single 34-minute improvisation with harp, soprano sax, viola, cello, and electronics, none of these instruments being used conventionally or producing instantaly-recorgnizable sounds. Restrained improv, where it is played and left unplayed are equally important, where sounds rarely clash, without actually falling down to complacency. Esthetical rapture. François Couture (Monsieur Délire)
Quote
This quintet was captured on tape at 2008 at Lisbon's "Música Portuguesa Hoje" festival. The instrumentation comprises harp, soprano sax, viola, cello and electronics, the character of the performance definitely oriented towards "disquietingly acoustic" regions, all sounds tactfully positioned in barely ruptured reticence.

Dragon Turtle.. very interesting.. I hear 'they draw more influence from Post-Punk, Krautrock and ambient/electronic music while refracting dark Americana aimed at contemplating natural dualities within the universe. '   yezz, yezz.. I seee... ;)

Cool concept and ideas.. not sure if I'm into it.. but could be if I were in the right mood.. Kind of reminds me of Iron and Wine...
I really enjoy listening to music.

Not the slick studio productions we were used to hearing from them, but it sounds like a personal living room performance of their songs

Have you listened to Claude Bolling with Jean Pierre Rampal? Bolling also has albums with Yo yo Ma and others.

It's similar to Peterson/Perlman

Claude Bolling was quite a prolific recording artist. (He currently has 129 CDs alone listed on Amazon.) This album was the first of many classical/jazz crossover albums he released over the last 35 years. I have quite a few of them, most of which are LPs purchased back when they were originally put out, which is probably one of the things that attracted be to the Perlman/Peterson disc in the first place.

 If you are so inclined this particular album was also released by CBS as part of their Half Speed Mastered series.

The following is an excerpt from Bolling's Amazon bio:

When the cheery opening bars of "Baroque and Blue" began emanating from radios and stereo phonographs throughout the U.S. in 1975, both Bolling and flutist Jean-Pierre Rampal quickly became household names among listeners who enjoyed both jazz and European chamber music as some of the melodies seemed to reflect the sunny influence of Jacques Ibert. The mingling of these currents worked nicely on the album Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio, and the record sold well, not least for its clever cover illustration depicting an anthropomorphized piano and a substantially upsized flute relaxing together in a hotel bed. The fact that the flute was blowing smoke rings gave the entire picture a humorously post-coital twist.

Bolling returned to the jazz/classical format many times, teaming up with a series of star soloists including guitarist Alexander Lagoya, violinist Pinchas Zukerman, trumpeter Maurice Andre, cellist Yo-Yo Ma, flautist Elana Duran. and pianists Emanuel Ax and Jean-Bernard Pommier. Bolling's two-piano inventions were composed in sonata form, and a "Suite for Piano and Chamber Orchestra" also emerged from his fertile imagination. In later years Bolling collaborated with jazz violinist Stéphane Grappelli and vocalist Guy Marchand, hosted numerous tributes to Duke Ellington and led a successful big band. His perseverance and longevity were rewarded with renewed interest in his many accomplishments, including of course Les Parisiennes, whose complete works were reissued shortly after the turn of the millennium in several eye-catching retrospective collections. ~ arwulf arwulf, All Music Guide

Lee Morgan (tp), Pepper Adams (bs), Bobby Timmons (p), Paul Chambers (b), Philly Joe Jones (ds), VGS-Hackensack, NJ, September 29, 1957

Considered one of his very best sessions. 52 years ago!
