Philippe Petit & friends

A Scent of Garmambrosia CD

We are honored to be working with Philippe Petit. Petit’s A Scent of Garmambrosia takes us into a dense, cinematic world that mixes acoustic instrumentation with digital filtering; swaying and unfolding amid the psycho-film-noir syntax of a Lynchean universe. Fans of Kronos Quartet, Philip Jeck, and The Boxhead ensemble will no doubt appreciate Petit’s pioneering post-classical soundtrack. A Scent of Garmambrosia is as much the work of Petit’s collaborators as of Petit himself. Over decades of being immersed in music, he has assembled a dream team of musicians, artists and thinkers without whom this album would not have been possible. COLLABORATORS: Bas Mantel (art) Helena Espvall (cello) Bela Emerson (cello) Raphaelle Rinaudo (electric harp) Maria Grigoryeva (violin) James Johnston (violins) Andy Diagram (trumpet/FX) Richard Harrison (percussions) Fred Lonberg-Holm: cello Alexander Bruck (strohviol/viola) Tom Heasley (tuba) Hervé Vincenti (guitar)
