Jeremiah Cymerman - Under a Blue Grey Sky [CD]

Under a Blue Grey Sky marks a new, more lyrical direction for clarinetist Jeremiah Cymerman. Scored for strings and electronics the music unfolds slower and at a more organic pace than Cymerman's previous work. Seamlessly winding between electronic & acoustic he creates a complex and unique sound full of lush sonorities, jagged melodies, breathtaking solos and unexpected surprises. Joined by Jessica Pavone (viola), Christopher Hoffman (cello), Tom Blanchard (bass) & Olivia de Prato (violin), Jeremiah Cymerman has created a remarkable studio composition that strikes a fascinating balance between the electronic and the acoustic, the mournful and the joyous, the bitter and the sweet."One of downtown's most inventive and resourceful composer-performers". - Time Out New York.
