FEATURES FOR THE WEEK
Monday September 13, 1999
AFRO CELT SOUND SYSTEM
What happens when Techno, Celtic and African music converge-- a
new, soulful and propulsive sound, put forth by Afro Celt Sound
System. With African grooves that morph into electronic rhythms,
singers from Ireland and Africa, Uilleann pipes and African
koras, Afro Celt makes a joyful and sensual sound on their second
album, Volume Two: Release (Realworld). We talk with Irish sean
nos singer Iarla O'Lionard, whistle player James McNally and
Sound System savant Simon Emmerson.
Tuesday September 14, 1999
KEVIN KELLER'S SWING OF THE PENDULUM
Kevin Keller is a keyboardist who creates an ambient chamber
music sound, using subtle synthesizer orchestrations. On his
latest album, "Pendulum" (Lektronic Soundscapes), Keller is
joined by cellist David Darling and guitarist Jeff Pearce. We
talk with Kevin Keller about chamber music for the 21st century.
Wednesday September 15, 1999
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH CLARA PONTY
On her latest CD, "Embrace" (Phillips) pianist Clara Ponty
orchestrates a romantic chamber world music sound. We gathered
in her cramped Manhattan apartment dominated by a grand piano
percussion, flute and keyboards. As we squeezed in, Clara
Ponty's music made the confines of the space evaporate in this
living room concert.

A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH SCOTT HUCKABAY
Scott Huckabay looks like a renegade from Haight Ashbury circa
1967 with long, curly black hair, embroidered vest and a loopy
grin. He plays a bit like one as well, inspired as much by Jimi
Hendrix as Michael Hedges. In fact, it's surprising to realize
at times that Scott is actually playing an acoustic guitar
because he's running it through an electric guitarist's arsenal
of effects. He uses delays, reverbs, and other effects and
couples them with his intricate two handed plucking techniques
for music that sounds like it must be played by 3 or four guitar
players. We hear Scott Huckabay playing new music and songs from
his latest album, "Alchemy" (Soundings of the Planet) on Echoes.
