about

"At one moment it sounds like ancient tribal ritual music, and the next, it evokes scenes of natural phenomena - awe inspiring landscapes. (This ensemble) ... paints pictures with sound that challenge the mind and imagination of the listener." - Todd Coolman
Two extended suites composed by Hans Sturm and commissioned by Mimmi Fulmer. The Sun Suite was composed for soprano, Japanese Koto and Bass Koto, double bass, and African percussion. Smoke and Fire was composed for soprano, saxophone, piano, bass, and drums. The CD was recorded over two days at Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin.
