RED by Marina Hasselberg

REVIEWS
"The Baroque, the avant-rock, the improvisational, and more mix fluidly in striking solo debut" — Alexander Varty, Stir

"Red, the first solo album by Vancouver cellist Marina Hasselberg, paints a portrait of a multi-faceted artist whose musical interests span centuries." — Daniel Barbiero, Avant Music News

"This is the best thing I have heard this year. I love it. Can't wait for the LP." — OutsideLeft.com

"It seems hard to believe that this is a musician who only began exploring baroque, modern and jazz genres when she moved to Canada to pursue a masters at Western University in London." —Stuart Derdeyn, Vancouver Sun

"radically free and playful, experimental" — Frank P. Eckert, Groove.de
