Henry Cowの初期から優れた楽器奏者/即興演奏家として知られているFred Frith。同様に一流の作曲家という側面も持っており、本作はその両極にフォーカスした興味深い物件!!氏と共に演奏を行うのはベルギーにて活動する有名現代音楽オーケストラMusiques Nouvelles。主に2種類に分けられたパフォーマンスが収録されており、一つはアンサンブル形態で行った凄まじいエネルギーとインスピレーションが続く即興演奏。もう一つはまさに氏の音楽性が現れた壮大で複雑なオーケストラ作品。尚、作曲は現代音楽の巨匠Lou Harrisonのストローベール・ハウスで行われており、その現場の静けさ、光、生活、歴史などからインスピレーションを得た模様。



From his early days with Henry Cow, Fred Frith was seen as a brilliant instrumentalist and improviser, but what has been overlooked is what a first-rate composer he is. This recording offers both aspects. His most complex orchestral composition and two selected improvisations with the Ensemble Musiques Nouvelles. Fred Frith, as an infusion of energy and inspiration.

'Something about this Landscape was commissioned by Ars Musica in 2018. I composed the piece during a residency at Lou Harrison's straw-bale house in the desert at Joshua Tree, California. It's an inspiring place for a number of reasons - the silence, the light, the life, the history. The extraordinary diversity of birds during the migration season. Both other pieces are improvisations. The first one is the one we did during the concert (in public), the other one, very different, is the one we did during the dress rehearsal (on the day of the concert).' Fred Frith
