Landscape Symphonies

Kim Macari sits in with music inspired by different environments including the west coast of Sweden, New York and the Baltic Sea.

Kim Macari sits in with music inspired by different environments. Brooklyn-based saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock’s latest offering is a piece originally aired at the Â鶹Éç’s Tectonics Glasgow 2021 online festival. A kaleidoscope of accordion, drums and electronics that create a shapeshifting bed for field recordings made on long bike rides, which meld alongside air conditioner hums, ice cream vans, power stations and other found sounds.

Producer Jeremiah Chiu and violist Marta Sofia Honer recorded late night boat and bike rides through the AÌŠland archipelago in the Baltic Sea under the soft glow of a baleful midnight sun. On their record, they merge these panoramic soundscapes with improvisations on modular synth, viola, piano and hand chimes. Bassist Petter Eldh celebrates his roots in the west coast of Sweden, paying homage to coastline flowers, popular oyster snacks and traditional folk music. Here, thunderous bass and melodic saxophone riffs sweep and swirl around iridescent vocals from the Ethiopian-Swedish artist, Sofia Jernberg to animate these odes to their homeland.
