FEATURES FOR THE WEEK Monday June 12, 2000 ANDREAS VOLLENWEIDER: PAIRING OFF On his latest album, COSMOPOLY (Sony Classical), Andreas Vollenweider strips down to the basics, getting rid of elaborate orchestrations and overdubs, and focusing in on interactions with a cast of global musicians. He pairs off with Bobby McFerrin, pianist Abdullah Ibrahim, singer Carly Simon and the Solis String Quartet among others. Vollenweider talks about the Swiss recording sessions that resulted in this album and about getting down to basic musician relationships. Tuesday June 13, 2000 A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH IAN BODDY British synthesist Ian Boddy plugs into Echoes for a live electronic spacescape, sculpted in the Echoes living room. While many musicians are unplugging, extolling the virtues of acoustic instruments, natural sounds and rootsy playing, Ian Boddy is resolutely wired. This legendary synthesist has been a major influence on the British electronic music scene and his albums span lush orchestral synthesis and classic space music ambiences. His latest CD is CAGED (DiN). Wednesday June 14, 2000 AN ANCIENT ECHO FROM DAVID PRITCHARD David Pritchard put out a great CD called AIR PATTERNS on which he over-dubbed his own acoustic guitar up to five times, creating a minimalist guitar orchestra. That album is out of print now, but we've resurrected it in an Ancient Echo. Thursday June 15, 2000 OMAR FARUK TEKBILEK'S TURKISH SOUND BATH Omar Faruk Tekbilek is a joyful and serene musician. Born in Turkey, but living in Rochester, New York, he plays just about every Turkish instrument you can imagine, from the stringed baglama to the ney flute, which he makes himself out of PVC pipes. He's played these instruments on several acclaimed albums including SULEYMAN THE MAGNIFICENT, FIREDANCE (Celestial Harmonies) and his latest, ONE TRUTH (World Class). A collection of his music, DANCE INTO ETERNITY (Celestial Harmonies), was just released. We'll go back to a feature we did with Faruk and hear him playing his exotic instruments. ***************************************************************** *denotes compilation ID#00-J07-00116 Monday, June 12, 2000 (Echoes Program 15G) ARTIST SELECTION RECORDING First Half Hour Andreas Stella Cosmopoly Vollenweider Jhno Moment Two Membrane Tony Levin Waters of Eden Waters of Eden LAGQ Daya's Spin Air and Ground Monk Improvisation Blink Second Half Hour ANDREAS VOLLENWEIDER: PAIRING OFF Andreas Vals del Sur Cosmopoly Vollenweider Nicholas Gunn Flight of the Return to Grand Canyon Condor Mary Jane Lamond Cattle on the Hill Lan Duil Jeff Pearce Doubt on Dark To The Shores of Heaven Waters Thomas Newman Miss Wichita Erin Brockovich Third Half Hour Liz Story 17 Seconds to 17 Seconds to Anywhere Anywhere Suzanne Teng Silverlake Mystic Journey Ruben Garcia The Continuation Lakeland of Slow Motion Bill Laswell Lost Roads Hear No Evil Orchestral Site Fourth Half Hour Spacecraft White Crane Echoes Living Room Concerts Vol. V* Michael Hedges Oracle The Best of...
