This disc contains the first complete recordings of Scelsi's music for doublebass.
This is volume 7 in Mode's acclaimed Scelsi Edition.
Scelsi's infamous KO-THA I, II, III - for string instrument played lying on its back in a percussive manner - is presented for the first time in an adaptation from the original for guitar by legendary bassist Fernando Grillo.
Robert Black, internationally known as one of the leading bassist of our time, has also collaborated or performed with a diverse number of musicians from D.J. Spooky to Meridth Monk to Cecil Taylor, and is a regular member of the Bang on a Can All-Stars. |
