All Kamancello’s published news.
“We talk to the musical duo, which is made up of Shahriyar Jamshidi on the Kurdish Kamanche and Raphael Weinroth-Browne on cello. They are playing tonight at Red Bird Live.”
Encore une fois, ça a été le résultat de deux incroyables instrumentistes et d’improvisateurs tellement créatifs.
There are many things that make Kamancello’s music appealing, its propulsive drive for one.
Featuring a collaboration between Kurdish kamanche (four-string Persian spike-fiddle) player Shahriyar Jamshidi and renowned cellist Raphael Weinroth-Browne, Kamancello present the new album “Of Shadows” which was recorded live and all the pieces were improvised in one take.
In The Rider (neo-barok) communiceren de instrumenten met elkaar en sluiten de bijdragen van de heren zeer fraai op elkaar aan. Dat communiceren komt in meerdere tracks terug, zoals in Dance Of Shadows.
For the third time, Kamancello presents its wide-ranging cultural exchange connecting East and West.
So, today we want to present you with a classical but at the same time modern, completely instrumental piece of music created by two musicians out of the ordinary.
It might even be a bit darker, a touch more Western-leaning, but cinematic in scope, and so wonderfully well-recorded.
The fact that these improvised pieces stand as fully realized compositions–sometimes much more so than songs
“If you are looking for emotion and pure beauty in music, regardless of genre, this album is for you.”
