Tenue, Gonzalo Macías

I’ve been hearing Californians
Just some old men riding fortunes
Palo Alto sunrise, honey
Showing wonder, made of money

Baby I love your riches
Reckless spending, you’re made of money 
Tell me all those secrets, honey
Fill my pockets, I’m empty, hungry

I don’t need your Wall Street noise
Tell me in your own damn voice what you’re missing
Cause babe I’m fishin’ for you

I don’t need your Wall Street noise
Tell me in your own damn voice what you’re missing
Cause babe I’m fishin’ for you

I’ve been hearing Californians
Just some old men riding fortunes
Palo Alto sunrise, honey
Showing wonder, made of money

¿Joaquín? - Ciompi Quartet

Maeshowe for sextet and sine tones. Concert recording from the premier in Helsingborg, Sweden, April 2018.

With many thanks to the Riot Ensemble for their help in realising this project: Ausiàs Garrigos (clarinet), Andy Connington (trombone), David Royo (percussion), Fontane Liang (harp), Neil Georgeson (piano), Louise McMonagle (cello) and Aaron Holloway-Nahum (conductor).

The piece is based on the resonant frequencies of Maeshowe, an ancient burial chamber on the Scottish island of Orkney. The frequencies were extracted from the acoustic impulse response and converted from Hz to 12tone equally tempered pitches with cent deviations. The frequencies are played exactly as sine tones and approximated by the instruments in various ways.

Maeshowe

from 'KNOTTING', CD release on Some Fine Legacy Records 

Knotting presents the entirety of a beautifully-recorded set performed by Ambarchi and the astonishing Australian- French drum virtuoso Will Guthrie in Geneva in February 2019. Beginning with a delicately played but rapid and insistent ride cymbal rhythm over which Ambarchi layers his signature shimmering Leslie cabinet guitar tones and eventually building, as the piece always does, to a peak of caterwauling harmonic fuzz and thundering drums, the recording also shows the pair taking risks and pushing the piece into new directions, especially in Guthrie’s willingness to let the central pulse momentarily die away or only barely be implied as his main focus of attention turns to instantaneous responses to the subtle rhythmic suggestions of Ambarchi’s shuddering guitar tones. Ambarchi’s performance also demonstrates the ever-evolving nature of his relationship with the guitar, making space for some of the more harmonically uneasy yet subtly lyrical playing (in a tone calling to mind the 80s guitar-synth work of Pat Metheny or Bill Frisell) that has emerged in his recent solo work. Ending with a remarkable coda where Guthrie’s bells and cymbals suddenly transforms the performance into something like Tibetan temple music, Knotting is an essential snapshot of the workof two musicians not content to repeat themselves.
