Pierre Favre - Now '2016

Tracks list

Swiss percussionist Pierre Favre leads DrumSights, an ensemble of four drummers,
on this album showcasing the percussionist as poet, the drummer as soundscape
painter and the composer as storyteller. In the studio, the drum quartet
performed and recorded these works from memory with plenty of room for
improvisation. As Favre says, the most complex and risky parts were played with
a smile.

This group has become an organism with a specific and recognizable sound. Some
parts can be perceived by unsophisticated ears as lacking precision ... the aim
of it all is to create frictions, to open spaces in the listener’s
feeling, to bring him to let go of his fear of leaving the ground and to use his
wings!
