Long distance improv
Corey Mwamba presents improvised music made through long distance collaborations, including an old recording reworked across time and new recordings made online.
The Oxford Improvisers came together online from different locations in 2021, to create a space of collaboration and dialogue in a piece called Between, a reflection of the physical distances between players. Here, they weave a world of ever emergent textures and terrains, filled with quiet sliding doors and rousing cacophonies.
Trio Eris 136199 - Catherine Sikora, Han-earl Park and Nick Didkovsky - mark their 10th anniversary with a long-distance improvisational collage, bringing new life to a performance originally recorded in Derby in 2017. Each player recorded a new part resulting in tectonic shifts, extraterrestrial buzzing and clandestine whispers across time. As Nick Didkovsky notes, 鈥淚t's like peering into a parallel universe and listening to what Eris in that world sounds like.鈥
Elsewhere in the programme we hear a piece of rich and expansive improvising from a custodian of Shona culture, the late Zimbabwean master mbira player Dumisani Maraire. A committed ethnomusicologist, he created a new notation system for the instrument, and championed Zimbabwean music around the world.
