Label: Another Timbre - at15x2

毎度人気が高いAnother Timbreが手掛けるJurg Freyの音源も4作目。今回はスイスの詩人Gustave Roudの作品にインスパイアされた長編を含む5曲入り2CD。Dante Boon、Stefan Thut、Andrew McIntosh、そして自身も参加したWandelweiser系4名による演奏。メロディ、リズムを含め極小の変化が果てしなく気持ち良い、いつもの如くスッと深部まで入り込んでくる名演。



A double CD with five beautiful pieces that engage with the work of the extraordinary French-Swiss poet Gustave Roud. Performers include Dante Boon, Stefan Thut, Andrew McIntosh and Jürg Frey himself.
“I think my process of work is similar to Roud’s: roaming with my sketchbook, taking a movement here, adding some notes there, following an impression, writing a little melody or a rhythmic constellation, deepening a feeling, extending a pitch, waiting and letting it happen…”
