Strings sandwich

Early in December I toddle over to Pressed from a cello and electronica sandwich. Alder & Ash were headlining, with Montreal ambient keyboardist Viñu-vinu following Alexis Castrogiovanni. Here's Alexis and saxophonist Michael!



Percussive action with Aneeq!



Bowed action!



Saxophonic action!



The whole lot!



On to Viñu-vinu, who has a new album composed during a residency in Banff.



Adjusting action!



Alder & Ash closed the night with some solo cello works. Here's main man Adrian, who uses loop pedals to create his compositions.



Another side of Adrian!



And so on!



Plucking action!



A fine way to spend an evening.
