Synopsis

Album Description
Celebrating Bartók?s fascination with the folk music of Transylvania, Hungary, Romania and Turkey, Haimovitz delves into his own Romanian/Middle Eastern ancestry to create a sonic tapestry that bridges genres, geographic distances and cultures. Working with legendary guitarist John McLaughlin and cutting-edge turntablist DJ Olive, up-and-coming talents such as Montreal?s early Mediterranean/contemporary music ensemble, Constantinople, and Haimovitz?s newly founded all-cello band, UCCELLO, Haimovitz explores the different facets of his musicianship as soloist, improviser, ensemble leader and collaborator.

CD Reviews

Great playing plus a cover of Kashmir - how can you go wrong
C. Butler | Baltimore, MD, USA | 01/22/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm a fan of Cello music and this is VERY well played and a really wide variety of stuff which is a good thing. I've got nothing against the standard catalog of music but it's good to get outside the box.



PLUS it's got a rockin' all cello cover of Led Zepplin's Kashmir - so how can you go wrong?"
