For an artist, their instruments are their tools of trade. Voice, piano, guitar and more. They provide the colours that artists paint with, the tools that give language to their art.
It makes sense then that an artist can find fresh expression and explore new realms by simply reaching for a new instrument. It's a new tool, a new colour giving way to new possibilities.
In this episode we chat about the strange, weird and very interesting instruments that musicians have taken up to create fresh and inspired new songs and sounds. Sometimes the instrument is familiar but how the artist chooses to use it is weird and wonderful.
We chat about musical worlds colliding; East meeting West, art meeting science, classical meeting modern. We chat Flying Microtonal Bananas, Blue Maqams, non-instruments, music machines, stage lightning and when orchestras get weird.
The world of music fandom is endlessly interesting and always rewarding, especially when you venture off the beaten path. Join us!
