ECHOES OF INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY Has your appetite been whetted by our Echoes program for International Women's Day? We've decided to dig deeper and listen to some favorites from the Echoes archive. ~Kimberly Haas |
| Chamber music for strings & electronics Rena Jones combines cello, laptop and violin in elegant and textured electronica chamber music, where Arvo Pärt-like lines flow as rhythms pulse, shudder and ping through the melodies. She invited us into her dining room to hear her do it live, with music from her CD Driftwood. |
In 2003, New York based guitarist Kaki King dazzled a lot of listeners with her two-handed tapping techniques and ferocious finger-style playing. The scary thing is, she's gotten even better since then. She visited Echoes in 2004 on the release of her second CD, Legs to Make us Longer, with original tunes that highlight her technique and gift for elliptical melodies. |

MARY YOUNGBLOOD The Native flute started out as an instrument for males, a courting instrument of Lakota tribesmen. But Mary Youngblood is from a new generation of Native women who have made the instrument her own. Born of Seminole and Aleut parentage, Youngblood has won two Grammy Awards, in 2003 for Beneath the Raven Moon and in 2007 for Dance With The Wind. In 2004, Mary Youngblood camesto the Echoes Living Room where she let out her Native flute calls. =listen= |

| CARYN LIN Caryn Lin plays a space age violin with a rock guitarist’s set of effects pedals. Using her violin for percussion, she creates an ambient chamber music soundscape, layering shifting timbres. It sounds like a mutated string orchestra, but it's all Caryn Lin, playing everything in real time. Last year, after releasing her CD The Call, she visited Echoes to give this concert. =listen= |
Irish harpist Aine Minogue is joined by cellist Eugene Friesen and pianist Tim Ray in an intimate performance of Celtic meditations and laments, live on Echoes. A scholar of fairytales, myths and legends from the Emerald Isle, Minogue spins music and tales, including songs from her albums, Celtic Meditations and Celtic Lamentations. |
