INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK


Monday 09/24
AN INTERVIEW WITH MICHAEL HALAAS & JOAN JEANRENAUD: DUOS OF DESIRE

Michael Halaas makes a passionate brand of chamber music. Not passionate as in romantic, but passionate in powerful and dynamic. This journeyman pianist teams up with cello virtuoso Joan Jeanrenaud from Kronos Quartet on a CD called The Lucidity Project. We get them together to talk about a different kind of chamber music.

AN INTERVIEW WITH ULRICH SCHNAUSS: A STRANGELY INFLUENTIAL MUSICIAN

Ulrich Schnauss is a German electronic artist who is influenced by forebears like Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk, but unlike so many retro-space artists, he doesn't sound like he just emerged from their dusty studios after a thirty year hermitage. Instead, Schnauss is keyed into contemporary electro rhythms, a bit of new wave shoegazer romanticism, and melodies that have the infinite, never-ending sound of a Pachelbel Canon. He's just released his third album, Goodbye, but it's really hello to an even more psychedelic sound. Ulrich Schnauss talks about his music on Echoes.

A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH GENERAL FUZZ
An electronic composer reverse engineers his music to play live

General Fuzz is the recording persona of James Kirsch. He studied classical music before being introduced to electronics and music computers, but now he creates an ambient electro-lounge music under the guise of General Fuzz. On his new CD, Cool Aberrations, he started out playing with live musicians, but then processed it all in a computer. For this concert in his San Francisco home, he brings those musicians back in to play live for real.

AN INTERVIEW WITH STARR PARODI: PERSONAL PIANO
A former television musician finds her own voice

Starr Parodi cut her chops in the Arsenio Hall Band in the early 1990s and has played fusion keyboards with numerous artists. Now she spends her time with her husband, Jeff Fair, writing film soundtracks and movie trailers. Recently, she turned off her keyboards and sat at a piano for the ruminations of her album, Common Places. Starr Parodi and Jeff Fair talk about an album that mixes originals with unusual cover choices like Buffalo Springfield's for What It's Worth.
