Mixing. World Music and Found Music
Description
This program spotlights two composers who use technology to manipulate and sequence the elements that make up their songs. Talvin Singh gives traditional Indian musical rhythms and dance moves a modern twist by mixing tabla tracks with the highly synthesized, repetitive loops of acid house music, while Jocelyn Pook mixes the found sounds of soccer cheers and catcalls with the strains of a string quartet and the vocal majesty of a choir. The results are remarkably compelling.
