FEATURES FOR THE WEEK

Tuesday 09/28/04
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH ARYEH FRANKFURTER
We travel to the San Francisco basement studio of Aryeh Frankfurter where he plays Nordic music for Celtic harp live on Echoes. Aryeh Frankfurter is a multi-instrumentalist based in San Francisco who can whip off world jazz fusion solos on violin or pluck the most delicate melody on Celtic harp. On his latest album, AURORA OF THE NORTHERN HARP (Lion Harp), he adapts music for Swedish Cow horn and clogged fiddle to his Celtic strings. We hear him do it live.

Wednesday 09/29/04
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH BANSHEE IN THE KITCHEN
Banshee in the Kitchen is a California trio whose hearts reside in Ireland. Brenda Hunter, Mary Tulin and Jill Eglund make up the Banshees, playing hammered dulcimer & fiddle, guitar & bouzouki, and flute & accordion respectively. In the flatlands of Bakersfield, they've forged an evocative Celtic sound that merges folk, classical and world music elements heard on their latest CD, CATCHING THE MOONCOIN. We catch Banshee in the Kitchen in Mary Tulin's living room, where they create their own brand of Celtic enchantment.

Thursday 09/30/04
FRITZ HEEDE & JOHN BANKS: ILLUMINATED PSYCHEDELIA
Animated DVDs usually have pedestrian images or derivative, canned music, but Fritz Heede and John Banks' DVD, ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPTS, defies that precedent. The disc is full of surreal, images that morph and flow one into the other creating a world of fantasy and light where doors open into glistening vistas and chairs are swallowed by vines. Fritz Heede's music follows suit with a delirious, eastern-inspired swirl of propulsive hand drum rhythms, ambient moods and melodies that spin like a dervish refracted in time. We create a sonic journey into the surreal world of Illuminated Manuscripts with Fritz Heede and John Banks.

Friday 10/01/04
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH PEPPINO D'AGOSTINO
Peppino D'Agostino is a virtuoso finger-style guitarist. He was born and raised in Torino, Italy where he played Italian bluegrass, but he's been in America for two decades, honing his reputation as a sensitive stylist and detailed composer. He recently re-recorded some of his best-loved pieces on the album, EVERY STEP OF THE WAY (Favored Nations Acoustic). For the first time since 2001, Peppino D'Agostino comes to the Echoes Living Room, to play his music live.
