| |
| Jason Sharp has been a fixture of MontrΘalÆs experimental/improv |
| scene for many years, chiefly as a saxophonist exploring drone and |
| durational music, while also collaborating in a wide variety of |
| jazz, avant and contemporary music ensembles û he has several |
| prior links to Constellation, notably as part of Sam ShalabiÆs |
| Land Of Kush orchestra and Matana RobertsÆ Coin Coin Chapter One |
| band, and as a session player on Thee Silver Mt ZionÆs 2010 album |
| Kollaps Tradixionales. |
| |
| SharpÆs work as a composer, conductor and band leader in his own |
| right is now featured on A Boat Upon Its Blood, the first |
| album-length recording to be released under his own name: a |
| bracingly meditative multi-movement instrumental work that charts |
| a highly compelling arc of shifting energies and intensities, |
| tracing a heterogeneous cycle of minimalisms and maximalisms. |
| Using custom-built equipment to translate breath and heart rate |
| into variegated sonic triggers, along with other modes of signal |
| processing and in tandem with traditional instrumentation, A Boat |
| Upon Its Blood features SharpÆs own reed playing and contributions |
| from a few guest musicians, particularly Josh Zubot on violin and |
| Joe Grass on pedal steel guitar. |
| |
| Taking its title(s) from Robert CreeleyÆs poem ôThe Heartö, A Boat |
| Upon Its Blood deploys the human metronome of amplified pulse as a |
| recurring undercurrent, with compositions that incorporate |
| electro-acoustic and musique concrΦte strategies, drone, noise, |
| electronics, methodical dissonance, tone poem, layered rhythmic |
| and melodic figures, and improvisation. |
| |
| Recorded by Thierry Amar (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Silver Mt |
| Zion, Vic Chesnutt) at the Hotel2Tango in MontrΘal and mixed and |
| mastered by Jesse Zubot (Tanya Tagaq, Drip Audio Records), A Boat |
| Upon Its Blood is a genre-defying album with a highly immersive |
| and satisfying sound palette that impels deep listening and |
| demands to be taken in as a whole. Constellation is thrilled to |
| present Jason Sharp as a unique and invigorating new voice in |
| modern contemporary music. |
| |
| Thanks for listening. |
