Night Tracks on BBC Radio 3

Black String is founded on Korean traditional music but guided by universal emotions, freely crossing generic borders while actively working to create a new level of improvisational performance. They present a repertory which is both contemporary and filled with Black String’s distinctive aesthetic. Led by master geomungo (traditional Korean six-string zither) player Yoon Jeong HEO, the band is further made up of guitarist Jean OH , daegeum (traditional Korean flute) and yanggeum (hammered dulcimer) player Aram LEE, and percussionist and vocalist Min Wang HWANG. Black String was selected for the 2016 World Music Expo Official Showcase, and was the first Korean band to win the Asia & Pacific Award from renowned world music magazine Songlines in 2018, demonstrating the excellence and artistic potential of traditional Korean music to the world. Following on from an invitational tour at a series of prestigious international festivals, Black String was the first Asian band to sign with ACT, Europe’s largest jazz label, so far releasing two studio albums, Mask Dance (2016) and Karma (2019), as well as a live album, Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic (2020).

US-born, Stockholm-based minimalist artist and apprenticing organ tuner Kali Malone gave a special organ performance in TivoliVredenburg's Grote Zaal as opening of Le Guess Who? 2019. The performance was part of The Bug's curated program for the festival. 

We can now share two exceptionally beautiful pieces from the performance: 'Sacrificial Code' and 'Glory Canon III'. Both are deeply immersive and mesmerizing tracks, drawing in listeners with Kali Malone's well-known warmth and timelessness.

Captured on Thursday, 7 November 2019, at TivoliVredenburg's Grote Zaal during Le Guess Who? 2019.

Kali Malone - Sacrificial Code

Release date: 20/03/20

Max de Wardener returns to Village Green with an album of detuned acoustic piano pieces, performed by British jazz pianist Kit Downes (ECM).

Drawing inspiration from modernist composers James Tenney, Harry Partch and La Monte Young, de Wardener’s intentions here were “to try and bend something established and monumental into something new”. 

The resulting album is deceptively simple, belying the project’s myriad technical challenges, (pianos are immensely stubborn when subject to unorthodox tuning methods). Captured over a two year period, Downes’ enlivening improvisations do justice to de Wardener’s vision in creating an elegant record that feels at once familiar, yet otherworldly.

A tribute to the courage of all those who attempt to cross the Mediterranean looking for a better future, often fleeing terrifying circumstances, both to the people who tragically lose their lives during the crossing and to those facing uncertain futures once they arrive.
