专辑简介

On "Field Reports," Composer Andrew Conklin engages with the rich legacy left behind by early 20th century composer Sidney Robertson Cowell's Northern California Folk Song Project, an archival project sponsored by the WPA in 1938 in which she documented thirty five hours of folk music from the region. Conklin reimagines these songs in a brilliant collage of contemporary chamber music, American folk music, and sound collage scored for three singers, three percussionists, double bass, and electronics.
