Pearls Before Swine Experience - Swine Live

SKU 05--CAPRICE21715
Featuring Sara Hammarström, flutes; George Kentros, violin; Mats Olofsson, cello; Marten Landström, piano, Pearls Before Swine Experience is a Swedish alt-classical ensemble who combine excellent 'old style' minimalism with modern, non classical traditions as well as classical sounds, giving a sound not dissimilar in some ways to Aranis.

"The peärls before swïne experience take new music out of its traditional milieu with great intensity and a newly written repertoire. They commission short pieces and work in close contact with some of the best young composers from Sweden and abroad. Their setting is actually that of a 19th century salon orchestra, but they instead put their energy towards creating a totally new attitude towards modern music. Now, the 'swïne,' Sara Hammarström (flutes), George Kentros (violin), Mats Olofsson (cello), and Mårten Landström (piano), have released a new CD called swïne live! This time, they wanted to make a 'live' CD that captures some of the feeling of their concerts. To help, they engaged one of Sweden's true pioneers of electroacoustic music, Sten Hanson, to rework the audience sounds between works - a typical groundbreaking collaboration. On this CD, the peärls before swïne experience perform new works by David Lang, Mårten Josjö, Per Mårtensson, André Chini, Annie Gosfield, Anders Hillborg, Tristan Murail, Mikael Edlund, and S. Pat. Simmerud."
