Fron Reilly & Stephen Vickery - [3rd piece]
Following some further outdoor excursions, Ministry of Phonic Services came inside for this afternoon of sonic explorations. The afternoon's main attraction was a demonstration of some recently-invented instruments from Guelph's Fron Reilly, including the fron2 ("a whirling ten-string bowed zither with a drum head resonator") and a large drone bass hurdy-gurdy. No mere novelties, both produced quite beautiful sounds, supported by some lovely double bass work (and nimble hurdy-gurdy fingering) from Stephen Vickery. Amazing things happening out at the sonic fron-tiers.
