wondrous horse - cavallo meraviglioso (fire museum 2008)

"Welcome one and all to the world of Wondrous Horse! Cavallo Meraviglisio is the debut offering of the italian duo of Vanessa Rossetto (Pulga, The Mighty Acts of God, ...) and Salvatore Borrelli ((etre) & Harps of Fuchsia Kalmia). These two musicians continue to evolve in fascinating ways, and the sounds to be found on Cavallo Meravigliso may come as a surprise to some, which makes it all the more exciting to hear.

An avant folk tour de force combining elements of electroacoustic music, glitch and many other experimental forms, Cavallo Meraviglisio gallops upon the scene assured and ready. Performing with an arsenal of instrumentation at the ready (violin, viola, balalaika, theremin, guitar, dulcetina, concertina, autoharp, bells, xylophone, voice, baritone guitar, tablas, darbukas, turkish saz, xylophone, esraj, dulcimer, resonant ukulele, celtic "droned" harp, banjo, kalimba, shruti box, irish bouzouki, lap steel guitar, toys, & drum machine since you asked) the duo have crafted a recording that successfully combines the myriad of influences of its creators into an organic and unique whole.

It takes a wondrous horse such as this to take the intelligent listener on a trip through such a unique and appealing sonic journey, so hop on and ride away today!
Special Guest on “Questi Orizzonti Scomparsi”: Valerio Cosi" fire museum

siguiendo con las felices coincidencias y a propósito de Fire Museum (sello del último disco de Arborea y "Käärmeenkääntopiiri") el propio Salvatore Borrelli aka (etre) me descubría uno de sus últimos proyectos junto a Vanessa Rossetto (The Mighty Acts of God y ese pequeño caramelo a dúo con Valerio Cosi llamado Pulga): Wondrous Horse. de Kemialliset Ystavat a Davenport. de Town & Country a Keenan Lawler. "Ogni Intuizione e Il Tangibile Segno del Declino", once minutos de auténtica montaña rusa, tribal y melódica a partes iguales, mezcla la voz de Vanessa, que recuerda a Lau Nau o Kuupuu, con flautas, percusiones, slides, darbukas y un sinfín de instrumentos exóticos. mucha variedad, mucha versatilidad, y momentos aislados que me recuerdan a Lee Ranaldo, Matt valentine & Erika Elder e incluso The Zoo Wheel (ese final con fuegos artificiales de "Mentre Ci Vediamo Misti A Foglie"). al final sólo queda el deseo de escuchar enterito Harps of Fuchsia Kalmia
