About the album:
Telemann
Fantasias is a recording of six of the twelve violin fantasias by
German composer G.P. Telemann, published in 1735. The performances
on the CD range from personal and stylistic interpretations to
versions marked by the distortion and fragmentation of the material
through the use of contemporary violin techniques. This approach to
interpreting old repertoire reflects Orazbayeva's work in
improvisation and as a performer of new and experimental music.
About Seeping Through:
In
Seeping Through (Margate), artist, director of Forced Entertainment
and writer Tim Etchells collaborates with violinist Aisha
Orazbayeva on a rolling improvisation that combines and moves
between spoken text and music over an intense, continuous one hour
period. Shifting through a set of spontaneous fragmentary
improvisations - text and music are treated as fluid forces in the
same space, fading in and out of each other, breathing together,
cutting and cancelling each other, creating a dynamic and always
unstable landscape.
