DE ALVEAR, MARIA - BAUM W/ DRUMS OFF CHAOS (CD)

"As if an incantantory ritual, Drums Off Chaos and MARIA DE ALVEAR create "acoustic images". The inherent spirit of the object - the essence of the tree comes to life through the interplay of voice and drums, assuming a clear shape in the listener's mind. MARIA DE ALVEAR's colourful and expressive singing and the repetitive, insistent rhythms provided by the Drums Off Chaos work towards the same musical idea: from the specific material of each, unusual, highly differentiated sounds are created that combine in space to an independent entity."
