The high percussive tones ring through the air in a delightful way. The hammer dulcimer is a great instrument to play and listen to outdoors. Many a cold December day we huddled under the Burnside Bridge playing Christmas tunes for the chilly folks stompin' their feet to stay warm.
Mostly they were recordings of dulcimer & fiddle tunes, dance music and hoedowns and such. We'd have a case of cassette tapes for sale, at one point I think they sold for $6 a pop. We'd put a hat or a guitar case on the ground and play for tips. In the early 1980s the four of us played music on weekends at the Portland Saturday Market.

It is a matter of exploiting the signal capacities of each ensemble and each player, while always avoiding a music which is simply a mixture or superimposition of two styles.Twista Returns Rollin Off At The Mouth Again On the other hand, the composition takes account of the fact that both ensembles are made up of improvisers, with their respectively different aesthetics. La Pieuvre keeps its character as an orchestral body, conducted as usual, and integrated into a form where the written music (in the traditional sense of the term), rhythmic or not, is entrusted to the CGO. Rather than meld the two groups into one, the sound and the particularities of each are left distinct, so that the two play simultaneously or in alternation within one musical unity. "The project here is to bring together two large ensembles with different musical trajectories, to create a music which will exist at the boundary between a number of disciplines. The piece brings together more than 30 musicians. Olivier Benoit, who directs La Pieuvre and composes for CGO, has written the music for Feldspath, drawing on the characteristics of both ensembles.

The Circum Grand Orchestra is one of those contemporary jazz orchestras looking eagerly at a wide range of musical aesthetics - rock, improv, free etc. La Pieuvre, although a conducted improvisation ensemble, is quite ready from time to time to indulge in certain written forms, as their second CD 'Ellipse', issued in 2007, can attest. More than a simple concert, Feldspath is an exhilarating spectacle to see as much as to hear, mixing tribal energy, dadaist humour, austere brilliance, studied refinement.
