FEATURES FOR THE WEEK
Monday 02/31/05
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH MARK HOLLAND
Mark Holland is the St. Louis-based virtuoso of the Native American flute and the leader of the world fusion band, Autumn's Child. Mark goes solo when he comes to the Echoes living room, playing his Native American flutes and telling the stories behind the songs of his new CD, FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS (Cedar 'n Sage), an album inspired by the events of 9/11 and its aftermath.

Tuesday 02/02/05
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH BLOW UP HOLLYWOOD
Their name is certainly scary and threatening, but the music of this New York-based art rock group ventures into regions of dream pop, moody rock and evocative chamber instrumentals. Their recent album, FAKE, is already garnering critical hosannas. Blow Up Hollywood conjure up a special set for the Echoes soundscape when the play live.

Thursday 02/03/05
ADRIAN LEGG: CHURCH HYMNS AND FLAGELLATED GUITAR
Adrian Legg is a guitarist's guitarist. As John Diliberto wrote in the liner notes of Legg's new CD, INHERITANCE (Favored Nations Acoustic), "Adrian Legg can bring you to tears with the sweetest melancholy melody played out in a filigree of finger-picking intricacy, leaving one gasping for air at the rarefied beauty of it all. But he can just as easily pluck and twang in a virtuoso display, bending notes in a drunkenly delirious slur of lines that slip and slide like Jim Carey at a taffy pull." Legg talks about his pan-roots approach to modern guitar playing.

ANJA LECHNER & VASILLIS TSABROPOULOS: MEETINGS WITH REMARKABLE MUSIC
In the 1970s, the motto of ECM Records was the most beautiful sound next to silence. No one has fulfilled that motto more than Anja Lechner and Vasillis Tsabropoulos with their album CHANTS, HYMNS AND DANCES (ECM). Lechner is the German cellist with the Rosamunde Quartet and Greek born Tsabropoulos has several jazz trio albums out. On their new album, they adapt the music of Armenian mystic G.I. Gurdjieff and Thomas de Hartmann in a series
