If the name East-West Collective suggests a worthy global fusion, be not
afeared, for Humeurs journeys deep into its own remarkable tone world, where
reeds, and sometimes voices, babble and hum about the twangling strings of the
koto and ghuzeng. At its most spectral, this set's avant-garde co-mingling of
eastern and western instruments recalls the acoustic work of Toshi Ichiyanagi
or the godfathers of Japanese improv, Group Ongaku; cello and reed drones prowl
through the grass, while Mya Masaoka's koto and Xu Fengxia's ghuzeng rustle and
crack like windblown bamboo. Elsewhere, Didier Petit's driving cello coaxes
percussive birchrattle rhythms from Masaoka and Fengxia, while Larry Och's
sopranino sax and Sylvain Kassap's clarinet pirouette on aerials. Closing track
'Humeur de l'Espirit' bristles with an elemental beauty, as koto and guzheng
strings are scraped and bowed, setting up a brittle rattle through which Ochs
threads a gorgeous melodic line.
