New Sounds from WNYC

For this New Sounds, we’re at the Norwegian-Finnish border, with musicians who are either or both Finnish and Norwegian, and music which involves the Finnish folk-harp, the kantele (which is held in a player’s lap or on a small table.) Hear music from composer, singer and master of the kantele, Sinikka Langeland, who is half Finnish, and half Norwegian. Her most recent record, “The half-finished heaven,” is a collaboration with sax player/composer Trygve Seim, classical viola player Lars Anders Tomter and percussionist Markku Ounaskari, featuring settings of verse by Swedish poet Tomas Tranströmer. However, the tune we’ll hear, “Caw of the crane,” is a melody-filled conversation between viola and kantele, punctuated by percussion. There’s also music from American percussionist Jeanette Wrate (Kangas), (who has both Finnish and Norwegian roots) from her recording, “Echoes of a Northern Sky” where Finnish folk music meets jazz. Then, from Norwegian sax player Jan Garbarek, listen to Norway’s wind and the sound of the Fjords turned into music by way of wood flute and wind harp, (or æolian harp.)   Also, listen to music from English musician Andrew Cronshaw's cross-cultural collaboration, "The Unbroken Surface of Snow," at times an unlikely combination of kantele and duduk. Plus, music from Finnish singer Sanna Kurki-Suonio and more.

Listen to music from around the globe, in the music from Italy, India, Egypt, Tunisia and Mali on this New Sounds. Hear music of northeastern and southeastern Europe together in the eight members of Finno-Balkan Voices, a Finnish-Estonian folk singing group and a Balkan choir. Then, there’s music and dances from Southern Italy in a piece from Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino. Hear the collaborative duo between a Jewish clarinetist from France, Yom, and Wang Li, a Chinese player of the “Jew’s Harp”/jaw-harp, mouth-harp from their 2012 record, “Green Apocalypse.” Listen to music from Anouar Brahem’s latest gorgeous release, “Souvenance,” music for oud, piano, quartet & small orchestra. Plus, music from Alsarah, a Sudanese-born singer by way of Yemen, who now lives in Brooklyn, as Alsarah & the Nubatones. Then, listen to Egyptian oud master, Tarek Abdallah, and percussionist Adel Shams El-Din, who both live in France, as they revive Arab musical tradition from their excellent, “Wasla.”  And more.   PROGRAM #3702– Music Around the Globe (First aired on 03/02/2015)              ARTIST(S) RECORDING CUT(S) SOURCE Yom, Wang Li Green Apocalypse Rings, excerpt [1:00] Buda Musique 860220budamusique.com Download from iTunes or Amazon.com Finno-Balkan Voices Finno-Balkan Voices Lintuseni [4:30] Finnish Folk Music Institute kansanmusiikki-instituutti.valmiskauppa.fi  or download via iTunes or Emusic.com Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino Pizzica indiavolata Itela [3:09] Ponderosa Music & Art 65ponderosa.it Yom, Wang Li Green Apocalypse Rings [2:52] Buda Musique 860220budamusique.com Download from iTunes or Amazon.com Alsarah & The Nubatones Silt Yanas Baridou [6:01] Wonderwheel Recordings #WONDER 21wonderwheelrecordings.bandcamp.com Tarek Abdallah, Adel Shams El-Din Wasla (Suites musicales égyptiennes) Wasla [4:33] Buda Musique 4704634budamusique.com Anouar Brahem Souvenance Kasserine [9:35] ECM 2423/24ecmrecords.com Debashish Bhattacharya Slide Guitar Ragas From Dusk Till Dawn Vasundhara (Mother Earth) [8:22] Riverboat TUGCD1083worldmusic.net ORpropermusic.com    

Hear music created by a cyclical approach to composition: some of it driven by technology, whereby layering, looping, or overdubbing are used to fit patterns against one another.  Listen to works from Icelandic composer and violinist of amiina Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir, commissioned by the group Nordic Affect, who play modern music on baroque instruments.  Hear Sigfúsdóttir’s  “Clockworking,” which is about musical patterns set in motion, all built of recorded sounds of harpsichord, and period violin, viola & cello, which then stack up in cyclical hypnotic fashion.   There’s also music from the second half of Arvo Pärt’s “Tabula Rasa,” an exercise in cycles being lengthened. The glacial pace of the work is a gradually unfolding musical process, where strings are extended and augmented each time through the pattern, then punctuated by prepared piano.  Plus, hear a work by young English composer Jon Opstad inspired by "Tabula Rasa," and music from the late Michael Galasso’s “Scenes.”   PROGRAM #3754– Cycling music (First aired on 07/23/2015)              ARTIST(S) RECORDING CUT(S) SOURCE Michael Galasso Scenes Scene 6 [6:00] ECM Records #1245ecmrecords.com Nordic Affect Clockworking Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir: Clockworking [7:32] Sono Luminus 70001sonoluminus.com Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra, Saulius Sondeckis, conductor | Gidon Kremer & Tatiana Grindenko, violins Alfred Schnittke, prepared piano Tabula Rasa Arvo Pärt: Tabula Rasa, Part 2 ECM 1275ecmrecords.com Jon Opstad Ignis Ignis, Part 7 jonopstad.bandcamp.com ORsoundcloud Nordic Affect Clockworking Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir: Sleeping Pendulum [10:06] See above. 

This episode, each track has something in common: the music is put to the sounds of voices taken out of one context and put into another. Start off with Brian Irvine’s exciting piece “Just A Little Lighter Cut of the Same Girls,” with samples from a cattle auction accompanied by a string quartet. Speaking of cattle, the next cut features sounds of cows! Composed by former mayor Philip Bimstein, “Garland Hirschi’s Cows” features his neighbor Garland Hirschi talking about his cows, in a piece that somehow manages to be both silly and sentimentally sad (while still featuring cows moo-ing). Then hear “Reeling” by Julia Wolfe, one of the Bang On A Can founders. This piece samples Celtic-inspired Quebecan “mouth musicians.” Next, a Washington DC Go-Go inspired track, a tribute to Chuck Brown by Dick Connette. Hear the voice of legendary Chuck Brown and others, with saxophone and drums.  And finally, back to the sounds of an auction in “Money Talk” by trumpeter and composer Ben Neill.   PROGRAM #3749– Music With Found Voices (First aired on 07/10/2015)              ARTIST(S) RECORDING CUT(S) SOURCE Chatham Saxaphone Quartet New Irish Music Brian Irvine: Just A Little Lighter Cut of the Same Girls excerpt [1:20] http:/ /shop.rte.ie/ Chatham Saxaphone Quartet New Irish Music Brian Irvine: Just A Little Lighter Cut of the Same Girls [3:06] See above.

Listen to electronic music from as far back as the 1970’s, along with brand new music from Tyondai Braxton for this New Sounds. Tyondai Braxton is an American composer and multi-instrumentalist who has recorded for both Warp Records and Nonesuch. (He's also the former guitarist, keyboardist and vocalist of the band Battles, which he co-founded.) On his latest album "HIVE1," which was originally a multimedia sound installation, combinations of electronic skitterings, distorted casino/pachinko parlor-esque bleepings and cartoony sproings are at times anchored by percussive pulses, and at others interrupted and accented with a wide battery of percussive elements. The record takes modern electronic dance music into the laboratory for some late night experiments with (or on) animated characters, and we’ll hear its jubilant closing track, “Scout 1.” There’s also music by electronic music pioneer Laurie Spiegel. Back in the 1970’s, she figured out how to meld Americana roots music into the electronic realm. Listen to her banjo-inspired music for electronics, a three-part work “Appalachian Grove,” from a collection of her early works, called “the Expanding Universe.” Plus, hear electronic music from film composer Thomas Newman (WALL-E, Shawshank Redemption, Best Exotic Marigold Hotel) and Los Angeles-based composer and multi-instrumentalist Rick Cox from their collaboration, “35 Whirlpools Below Sound.” And more.  PROGRAM #3737– Electronic Music Survey (First aired on 06/10/2015)              ARTIST(S) RECORDING CUT(S) SOURCE Thomas Newman; Rick Cox 35 Whirlpools Below Sound Ashland Schine, excerpt [1:00] Cold Blue / Cold Blue Music - #40coldbluemusic.com Laurie Spiegel The Expanding Universe Appalachian Grove I [5:23] Unseen Worlds UW 09unseenworlds.net Tyondai Braxton Hive1 Scout 1 [9:27] Nonesuch 547466 nonesuch.com Laurie Spiegel The Expanding Universe Appalachian Grove II [7:56] Unseen Worlds UW 09unseenworlds.net Thomas Newman; Rick Cox 35 Whirlpools Below Sound Ashland Schine [7:18] Cold Blue / Cold Blue Music - #40coldbluemusic.com Alain Thibault (Montreal Saxophone Quartet) Volt ELVIS (electro-lux vertige illimite synthetique) [13:57 ] Imedia 9003www.electrocd.com has all details.

This episode continues the series exploring the new music of Ireland. John Schaefer sits down with Jonathan Nangle at the Contemporary Music Centre in Dublin. Nangle tells how Donnacha Dennehy influenced him to explore more experimental music, and then shares how electronics and silence factor into his compositions. Listen to how Nangle uses electronics to subtly augment conventional instrumentation on "Where distant city lights flicker on half-frozen ponds". Hear Nangle explain how his piece "Then Falls by Shadow" takes the inspiration of Irish weather to combine shuffle mode with a choral performance. Later in the hour, John Schaefer talks to David Bremner about his own compositions and playing the pipe organ at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin. Hear Bremner's piercing organ compositions "Variations upon 'the usual reason'" and "Amhrán na Leabhar."

Hear electroacoustic music by Dublin-based Seán Mac Erlaine and Australian-born, London-based Leah Kardos. Plus, music from NY-based GABI, cellist Julia Kent, and Bing & Ruth.

Composer, keyboardist and bandleader, Missy Mazzoli, joins John Schaefer to introduce selections from her new recording, “Vespers for a New Dark Age.” The work, commissioned by Carnegie Hall for the 2014 Ecstatic Music Festival, is a 30-minute suite for singers, chamber ensemble and electronics, and is built around text, both spiritual and worldly, by contemporary poet Matthew Zapruder. Mazzoli wrote for the very specific voices of sopranos Martha Cluver, Melissa Hughes and alto Virginia Warnken Kelsey, who all have a lot of experience with contemporary music but also early and Baroque music. Her ensemble Victoire provides dramatic settings while drummer Glenn Kotche (perhaps best known for his work in Wilco) propels the work percussively.  Plus, hear selections from Phil Kline’s millennial mass “John the Revelator,” written for the early/new music vocal group Lionheart and the quartet ETHEL.

Listen to works that include gamelan, but take a more western approach for this New Sounds - like combining Celtic traditional music and Indonesian gamelan in music from Gamelan Son of Lion and composer/sax player and bagpiper Matthew Welch. In the music of Barbara Benary, the co-founder and guiding spirit of Gamelan Son of Lion, there is a juxtaposition of Cape Breton Celtic singing, gamelan and Benary herself on violin. Also, hear the Celtic-Balinese tapestry of Matthew Welch’s chamber rock hybrid Blarvuster with its Scottish bagpipes, Balinese gamelan, and Welch’s vocalizing in Indonesian. Plus, Lou Harrison’s "Threnody for Carlos Chavez," written for viola and gamelan ensemble, and music from NYC-based Patrick Grant, who serves his post-minimalism with a twist of Rock and Balinese gamelan. That, and more.

Hear unusual music for string quartet on this program, as Australian composer Andrew Byrne, now based in New York, uses the string quartet as a percussion instrument in his work called “Striking.” Then, listen to Bang on a Can All-Star saxman, clarinetist and composer Ken Thomson’s work for the JACK Quartet, “THAW.” There’s also folk-informed music from the singer, songwriter and composer Aoife O Donovan as played by Brooklyn Rider. Hear string quartet music by multi-instrumentalist composer Vân-Ánh Vanessa Võ, who plays a traditional Vietnamese string instrument on “Green River Delta,” in collaboration with Kronos Quartet. Plus, hear a work from Pulitzer Prize-winning composer John Luther Adams that uses the string quartet as an ambient music ensemble, relying upon harmonics and on tones played on open strings. That, and more.

Listen to world music that veers into psychedelic territory on this New Sounds, with Native-American inspired percussive drone music and Afrobeat from Brazil in music by Bixiga 70. Hear a mix of Afro-Ethiopian rock and jazz from the Brazilian band, Bixiga70, whose name is clearly a nod to the Afrobeat pioneered by Fela Kuti and drummer Tony Allen (with whom Mauricio Fleury from the band studied with.) This brass-heavy sound bounces through boundaries to harvest textures of Guinean and Malian mandingo from Guinea and Mali, soukous from the Congo and ethio-jazz. Also, there’s music from a Chinese string band, Red Chamber, and their pipa, zheng, zhongruan, among other Chinese lutes and zithers. On this tune,"Ah Ya Zein," they accompany oud player Gordon Grdina, and are augmented by all kinds of percussion from other traditions. Then, hear “tribal folkadelia” from Flamingods, with musicians based in London & Bahrain, and operatic trance music from Toronto-based artist, Alexandra Mackenzie, who records under the moniker Petra Glynt. Also, listen to a song from Nathan Bowles, a pounding tribute in percussive drone to the dwindling population of the Nansemond tribe who were part of the Powhatan confederacy in Virginia. Plus, explosive music from the Belgian brass klezmer punk band Kermesz a l'est, and more.

Listen to new music for the instrument from Southwestern Norway known as the Hardanger fiddle, (or hardingfele), but of course there’s a twist. For this New Sounds, there’s post-rock, world music, electroacoustic music, and even an Irish-American duet on this Norwegian instrument – with music from Scotland, Ireland, and the U.S. Hear the collaborative recording between Hardanger fiddle master Nils Økland and the post-rock duo The Low Frequency In Stereo, called Lumen Drones – which comes off as a psychedelic drone band. Then, listen to music from the octogenarian bard Robin Williamson (of Incredible String Band reknown), along with violist Mat Maneri and drummer Ches Smith. Then, hear a duo record from Caoimhin O Raghallaigh (of The Gloaming) and Dan Trueman (founder of Princeton Laptop Orchestra), which stretches and recombines the DNA of Norwegian folk and Irish trad fiddling on a 10-stringed instrument, the Hardanger d’Amore. Plus, there’s music from the Hardanger’s likely ancestor, the viola d’amore, by composer/violist Garth Knox, and more.   PROGRAM #3676 Hardanger Fiddle Music (First aired on 12/23/2014)   ARTIST(S) RECORDING CUT(S) SOURCE Lumen Drones (Nils Okland/Per Steinar Lie/Orjan Haaland) Lumen Drones Dark Sea [3:54] ECM 2434 http://ecmrecords.com Annbjørg Lien Baba Yaga Aja [6:27] North Side #6044 / Grappa Musikkforlag GRCD 4158 annbjorglien.com Robin Williamson w/ Mat Maneri, viola and Ches Smith, drums Trusting In The Rising Light Our Evening Walk [5:40] ECM 2393 ecmrecords.com Lumen Drones (Nils Okland/Per Steinar Lie/Orjan Haaland) Lumen Drones Keelwater [6:15] See above.

Hear music for the combination of choir and percussion like "Whispers and Cries," by Australian born composer Andrew Byrne, which features fellow Aussie musicians Astra Choir and Speak Percussion.  The show won't always stick to traditional choirs and percussion. In Daniel Lentz's "Postludium," the choir members rub and strike wine glasses while singing, and Anna Thorvaldsdottir's "into-Second Self" features a layered choir of two brass instruments. In addition to rhythmic and driving drumming, hear more of the atmospheric and colorful role of percussion in music for the combination of choir and percussion. The centerpiece of the show, a work called "Whispers and Cries," by Australian born composer Andrew Byrne, features fellow Aussie musicians Astra Choir and Speak Percussion.
