about

Cistre en solo, préparé, joué avec une slide. Influences multiples: le moyen-orient, le blues, le folk, la musique d’improvisation libre. Iridescence démontre clairement la distance parcourue par Heïkalo dans son exploration de cet instrument méconnu qu’est le cistre depuis sa première oeuvre lui étant dédiée, Eagles’ Paradise, paru en 2000.

Solo cittern, prepared cittern, slide cittern. From middle-eastern-influenced meditative excursion to experimental sonic extrapolations and free improvisation, Iridescence is a showcase for the distance traveled by Heïkalo in his cittern playing since his first release of music for that instrument, Eagles’ Paradise, released in 2000.
