Electro Chamber Minimalism
Serious Folly is the new CD from the Erasmus Quintet. EQ focuses
on eternal rhythms, interlocking, searching for the everalsting
one. Electrovibes provide the backbone to the group with
complementary and sometimes jagged guitars mixing it up with saxophones
and accordion. A unique blend of instrumentation, conceptual
underpinnings, and intuitive rhythms along with a healthy dose of fun.
The Erasmus Quintetwound wound its way out of the ever-expanding New
Haven Improvisers Collective.
NHIC is a far-reaching collective of creative musicians forming into a
particular group to play particular music in a particular moment.
NHIC is interaction, conflict, and harmony |

A
few notices about EQ and NHIC
It
felt
as if snake charmers were working their magic on the
audience. Guitar and accordion have never sounded this good.

Cubism that, through invention, fragmentation and
rearrangement of form, simultaneously depicts many surprising, even
revelatory
facets of a piece as it unfolds in real time.
