Archangelica
When baroque music and jazz intermingle their themes and approaches, contemporary mojo links up with the sacred of yesteryear and the shadows reveal their gold....
"...Entities that are seemingly direct opposites can reach out to each other and get along just fine: such is the daring assumption of this record. When baroque music and jazz intermingle their themes and approaches, contemporary mojo links up with the sacred of yesteryear and the shadows reveal their gold.... Would a harpsichord have anything to say to a marimba? Absolutely! Might a woman's voice intertwine with the sounds of a serpent? Why not? Thanks to the rigors and constraints of their respective musical training, the musicians manage to be free together, and to bestow this freedom on their listeners." (N. Huston)
