| NOTES |
|
The long-awaited second offering of
elephants in the Thai jungle playing specially designed musical
instruments. The Thai Elephant Orchestra was co-founded by Richard
Lair of the Thai Elephant Conservation Center in Lampang and
performer/composer Dave Soldier. This CD is more tailored for
children than the first, and explores the far reaches of what the
ellies now perform, including lots of traditional Thai music, and
even Beethoven (the Pastorale Symphony) and Hank Williams (Kaw-liga).
Guest appearances by dance composer David First, cellist Jamie
Seiber, pin pia player Smithitham, bamoolin player Muangling,
saxophone sensation Matusuda Madoka and more. But still lots and
lots of pure elephant music with almost no editing or studio
tricks sure to please their fans.
REVIEWS!
Reviewer: CD Baby
Burned out from the usual, bored with the
Britney Spears, Dave Matthews and Matchbox 20 clones popping up
everywhere? Here's an album to shake everything up as well as
impress your friends. Elephants playing Thai music, Beethoven
and even Hank Williams. We all know that elephants are one of
the most intelligent animals on the planet with intriguing
emotionality, daunting memory and all that- but playing music?
Well, why not?!
