SCODANIBBIO, STEFANO - Incontri & Reuniones

"2015 release. Stefano Scodanibbio (1956-2012) was one of the great contrabassists of recent times. A long-time associate of Luigi Nono and Terry Riley. Active both as an interpreter -- composers who wrote for him include Scelsi, Sciarrino, Bussotti, Xenakis, Ferneyhough... and as an improviser. This memorial CD brings together an extraordinary program of previously unreleased pieces performed with maverick figures such as Terry Riley (synth), Rohan de Saran (cello), Garth Knox (viola), Mike Svobda (trombone), Tristan Honsinger (cello), Frances-Marie Uitti (cello), Bruce Ackley (soprano sax), and Michael Kiedaisch (percussion). This is rich and tactile music with hyperreal attention to details of microtonality and timbre." - I Dischi Di Angelica.
