Album Notes

Carla Kihlstedt -

Though she came up in the classical canon, Kihlstedt is “…a musician fruitfully working in the margins of the known musical world” (Santa Barbara News-Press). She feels herself fortunate to have worked closely with some of her favorite artists including: Tom Waits, Satoko Fujii, Ben Goldberg, Carla Bozulich, the Rova Saxophone Quartet, and Fred Frith, whose new band Cosa Brava (including Zeena Parkins, and Matthias Bossi) has just finished a European tour. She most recently she has written a staged song cycle for 7 players called Necessary Monsters, and premiered Lisa Bielawa’s Double Violin Concerto together with violinist, Colin Jacobsen and the Boston Modern Orchestra Project.

total pleasure

nowadays it's rare to take notice of music that's put out on the net on channels like myspace and such, but this made such an impression when I accidentally(!?)dropped by the myspace page of Carla K. that it became a regular page to visit for lovely music. it was a delight to find the physical cd here at cdbaby. this is a fantastic record full of joyful and joybringing music in the tradition of Øyvind Rauset, Stian Carstensen, Robert Wyatt and such like that I highly recommend. give it a listen!

One of my favourite records of all!

I have listened to many different records, but this one is the kind of record I find again when I want that something special, when I want the exquisite, the tickling-feather-like-feel-for-the-spirit. This record is so adventurous, so moving and so interesting it just seems to be impossible to get tired of it even if one actually tried to. There are beautiful passages of strings just making waves of grace... most of all there is one great composition after another without a single boring or even just a bit uninspired moment. Do yourself a favour and buy this record. It is one of the best there is.

Thoroughly wonderful. I'd pay $25 alone just to hear 'Auction Block' performed live. If you love Carla, SGM, and related stuff, you've gotta get this one. Superb.
