ourmanin Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 Hello all, anyone aware of this excellent Guitarist from Sardinia ? His new album playing the music of Frith and Bjork (called Tesutti) is wondeful, and he has also made a fanatstic duet album with Hamid Drake. He also features with Evan Parker and Ned Rosenberg on a Psi Appelby album, which I haven't heard yet. Any other fans out there ? Quote
7/4 Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 (edited) Oh yes. I've heard a bit of the Tesutti album. He bows modified guitars. Edited August 20, 2008 by 7/4 Quote
king ubu Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 I heard part of that concert with Hamid Drake on the air - great indeed! Had to buy that CD eventually - it's available from CD Baby: http://cdbaby.com/cd/angelidrake Angeli btw plays a guitar he built/modified himself, with more strings than usual or something crazy - he gets quite wonderful sounds with that instrument!

jostber Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 Thanks for this tip, gotta check this out! Quote
Alexander Hawkins Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 Lovely guy, absolutely fantastic musician! Quote
ourmanin Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Posted August 22, 2008 Lovely guy, absolutely fantastic musician! Absolutely. He organises a festival in Sardinia in September, if anyone is down that way. He plucks/fingerpicks his guitar as well as bows it, and he has footpedals, wires, bells, all sorts of additions, but controls the beast brilliantly. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 He played Appleby last year - very impressive. Several of his discs are on e-music. I especially like the recent Frith/Bjork one. Quote
Alexander Hawkins Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 Bev - have you seen this one? I'm certainly planning on picking it up! Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 Bev - have you seen this one? I'm certainly planning on picking it up! I didn't get to any of the freezone sessions but did see the three on the main stage. I'd imagine these are a mix of solo, duo and trio improvs (that's what they did on the main stage). I must admit I didn't really connect with Rothenberg. Might give this a go to see if I can find a way in. Quote
jimi089 Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 I only own the duet with Hamid Drake but I really enjoy it. I'd consider picking up some more of his stuff based on what I heard there. Quote
Alexander Hawkins Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 Paolo gave me that one with Hamid Drake a couple of months ago - I gather that was the very first time they'd ever played together! Quote
CJ Shearn Posted September 2, 2013 Report Posted September 2, 2013 Pat Metheny has one of his guitars Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted September 3, 2013 Report Posted September 3, 2013 Paolo Angeli, Fred Frith, Bjork. Good record. Quote
