Jon Mueller - Canto (MAGENTA & BLACK STREAK VINYL) Vinyl Record

Jon Mueller is a multi-faceted percussionist, presenting his latest body of work in Canto for gongs, voice, and percussion. In his solo work that spans two decades, Mueller has embarked on a lengthy exploration of the timbres, the dissonance, and the physicality of repetition from his array of percussive instruments. Gongs had long been a part of his repertoire, but here on Canto he addresses their specific sonic attributes in conjunction with extended vocal techniques bolstered through his studies with the legendary NYC minimalists LaMonte Young and Marian Zazeela. In ruminating upon this shift in focus for Canto, Mueller explains that The driving energy of drums is replaced by deep contemplation and wonder, questions, confusion, darkness and ultimately, calm.
