Song For

Marcel Lüscher - clarinet, bassclarinet, saxophones, ocarina
Kristinn Smári Kristinsson - guitar
(Ice- and Switzerland)

Music with a view. Ears with eyes. Breathe.

The sparse instrumentation is misleading: the Swiss saxophonist and clarinetist
Marcel Lüscher together with guitarist Kristinn Smári Kristinsson from Iceland have
created a floating ecstatic cosmos.
Both pay hommage to beauty – not in an esoteric, kitshy or emotional manner, but in
a thought-provoking way, courageous in it’s simplicity.
Their subtle introspective music lets us pause and listen carefully, it sharpens our
sensitivity towards quietness and the unspectacular and praises a quality of life we
are about to lose.
You cannot avoid hearing the desire and buzzing in the musician’s hearts, no matter
how quietly they play their instruments. The two musicians harmonize perfectly and
play their own style of music somewhere between Björk on valium and Gimmy
Giuffre’s slow motion.
Music with a view – ears with eyes. Breathe.
Anyone who doesn’t get warmed up here will freeze for a long time!

Lüscher/Kristinsson
