Product details
Australian Bruce Crossman blends East and West in his new
release Heaven to Earth Border House on Navona
Records. With his modernist approach to musical construction
and style, he effortlessly integrates traditional Western,
Korean, and Chinese instruments and philosophies into a
coherent, enlightening whole.
Heaven to Earth Border House uniquely features two
kinds of zithers: the Korean gayageum as well as the Chinese
guzheng, and the largest Korean bamboo flute, the taegum. These
instruments are alternatingly grounded by Western percussion,
the piano and a haunting soprano. The subject matter of the
musical pieces is ethereal: Allegoric titles such as Garden of
Fire, Fragrant Rain Clouds of Love, and Strange Invisible
Perfume reveal the fragile poetry expressed in the music -
oscillating between the sensual and the spiritual.
