Old Piano by Gregor Kulla
Gregor Kulla puts their classically trained brain on hold to work on segments for “Old “Piano” – a mockumentary by Kris Lemsalu & Johanna Ulfsak. Which all kind of makes sense, since Kulla is working with visual material consisting of home–birthing, luminous coach–like beings, Internet Sisters & of course the one & only Donatella Privada.
The A–side takes us from nostalgic piano & saxophone led excursion to a full on pseudo healing session. On “Birthing Music” Kulla makes the best of loose congas accompanied by stretched Tibet bowls, crotales, windchimes, velvety alto sax & of course, vocals. The hushed vocals make absolutely no sense, but are surely part of a curing mantra. The B side takes its time & is all about organ drones & chimes in good company with rain & birdsong soundscapes. “Relaxing Music” – one can agree with the track's title. Everything on this record is acoustic, except for the serene choir in “Birthing music”.
Gregor Kulla is a composer, performance artist, writer, critic & model.
