Featuring the Kihnoua
In ancient Greek, Kihnoua is "the difference," an apropos title for saxophonist Larry Ochs' San Francisco-based ensemble exploring the combination of "Western improvised music" with ancient sounds from Korea and other folk forms. Perfect foils for Kihnoua are South Korean vocalist Dohee Lee, fusing traditional music with contemporary elements, and drummer Scott Amendola, further expanding his sonic palette with custom designed electronics.
