Massed string orchestra, Chinese violin making, live sampling in a crazed and hypnotic industrial process on this CD of an interactive new media performance from the inimitable Jon Rose.
 

Rose, Jon
The Violin Factory



Label: Hermes Discorbie
Country: Slovokia

Back in stock!

The second of Jon Rose's discs based on recordings made in a Chinese violin factory (a series that also includes China Crisis and The People's Music). Rose built a symphony based on his violin factory recordings for an orchestra with live processing by Kaffe Matthews. Fascinating work. Slovenian import in a printed cardboard sleeve.
