Product details
Ron Nagorcka is not only a didjeridu virtuoso, but is one of
Tasmania's most important and distinctive contemporary composers.
Armed with his digital sampler, Nagorcka is able to not only draw
upon the sounds of the local wildlife and countryside but combine
them with extraordinary electronic manipulation and Pythagorean
just intonation.
On this, his first CD for Move Records, Nagorcka is joined by his
long-time collaborator, the Melbourne-based pianist, educator and
co-composer Robert Williams. The gorgeous cover and backcard
artwork is by the acclaimed Tasmanian artist, Philip Wolfhagen.
From the many Nagorcka / Williams didjeridu and sampler
collaborations, to Elizabeth Anderson's harpsichord in
Zygodactyl Dance, and Larry Polansky's electric guitar in
Mood from Lake Mungo, Devils of the Night will
provide an evening of listening you won't easily forget.
Duration: 65 min.
