Marta Sainz: voice, dan bau; If, Bwana (Al Margolis):
amplified detritus box, recorder, clarinet
Marta Sainz and Al Margolis (If, Bwana) met and performed
together in Madrid, Spain for the first time in October
2014. That initial performance – she on voice/performance
and he on laptop, was such a joy, that they both determined
that they would work together again as soon as possible.
That opportunity arose again in June 2015, when the duo did
a brief tour in Spain, as well as going into the studio in
Madrid – which is Sable.
On this recording of 3 improvised pieces, Sainz vocalizes as
well as performs on an amplified dan bau – a Vietnamese
single string instrument. Margolis makes use of what he
calls a “detritus box” – one side wood, one side laminate,
each half amplified with contact microphones – and all
manner of detritus used to make sounds, as well as alto
recorder and clarinet.
Through the use of her voice and body, Sainz’s performance
refers to elements of German Expressionism and the theater
of cruelty of Artaud: she is seeking to emotionally shock
the viewer with their own experience, without the content
and performance having a specific meaning intended in
itself. Margolis shows increasing clarity of vision in his
work – both as a composer, and on this recording, as an
improvisor.
Together, they manage to fuse beauty and terror into
something truly remarkable. This recording is a very special
experience for anyone willing to travel the length of a
terrifying way with these accomplished and visionary
performers. |
