about

Spettro is a ghost conspiracy for solo drums. The piece begins with a driven pulse, subtly altering the audience’s perception of space and sound, leading into mesmerising percussion landscapes, using density and silence to denote rage and calm, and enchanting with humour and subtlety. The performances of Spettro are intensely alive. Barbara Frey (director), Fritz Hauser and Brigitte Dubach (lighting) once again succeed in bringing into being a new cosmos through sound and images with the simplest of means. Where Drum-with-Man took reduction to the extreme, Spettro leads into an oscillating fantasy.

Recorded in 3D format for sound installations (5.4.1), surround sound (5.1) and stereo (2.0). World Premiere Recording

The physical edition includes a CD, a 24 pages book with liner notes by Adrian Vieli, a conversation between director Barbara Frey, Fritz Hauser and Mark Sattler. The album includes a code to download the HD version of the album in stereo and 5.1 surround formats.

REVIEWS:

"Spettro is a positive litany in uncertainty and ambiguity. (…) Like an impromptu drum solo blown up to gargantuan proportions, Spettro taps into – as its name in part suggests – a full spectrum of percussive possibilities, not merely blurring but embracing and merging the austerity of ritual and arbitrariness of play into a complex, disorienting whole."
5AGAINST4

"Spettro, diu Hauser, és una trama fantasmal per a bateria en solitari. Nosaltres aniríem més enllà, perquè considerem que el tractament del so de la percussió és espectral, policromàtic, insistent i hipnòtic, i que busca la inestabilitat de freqüències i superposicions d’un sol tema (i d’una sola història), amb frasejos narratius extremament concisos que furguen febrilment les nostres percepcions."

Absolutely love this recording. I listen to it at work. I listen to it in the car on the way home from work. I listen to it while falling asleep. Curtis’ cello is so amazing. Just got the vinyl in the mail from Discogs the other day! Can’t wait to play on my hi-fi system! Dave Sewall
