What Happens In A Year: Ceremonie / Musique
ByThese are improvised, let's-see-what-happens sounds, full of mystery and shifty meaningsthree way conversations by practiced interactive musical orators who all seem as if they are out to prove absolutely nothing, on a search of discovery for a unique and enticing mixture of sound.
Todd Neueld's guitar is a key to the success. A piano wouldn't have worked. The electric sustain, the guitar's blurry glow lays down the ghostly, luminescent foundation for the sometimes mellifluous, sometimes warbling reed work, while Merega's bass keeps the sound tethered to the cold Earth, floating just above the low-to-the ground mist.
If the music were a soundtrack, the images would be filmed at dusk, in November. The storyline would involve disillusionment, a disturbing desolation, alienation from the potential comforts of society.
