The Musical Railism of Anne Le Baron
- Artist
- Anne Le Baron
Anne LeBaron’s music us a mixture of elements and influences—a combination of modern compositional techniques with rock, blues and gospel. The many facets of her talent are showcased in The Musical Railism of Anne LeBaron.
The cornerstones of the CD are her two solo performances on harp: Dog-Gone Cat Act for extended techniques on prepared harp, and I Am An American…My Government Will Reward You, a blistering piece for harp, live electronics and tape dedicated to “those on foreign soil who suffered to help Americans escape from hostile territory.” Here the electric harp transforms itself into Hendrix-style electric guitar solos, at times also sounding like a bass guitar, classical guitar and lute (as well as harp!). Program notes with German and French. translations.
