Description
‘RFG Inventions for Cello and Computer is a steeply adventurous, highly structured and rewarding electro-acoustic collaboration between pioneering British/Russian inventor and engineer Peter Zinovieff and preeminent cellist Lucy Railton.’
The collaboration is notably issued as Peter Zinovieffs first album and also becomes the follow-up to Lucy Railtons acclaimed solo debut Paradise 94. It finds Zinovieff, co-founder of Londons influential EMS Synthesizer company and owner of the worlds first home computer, using custom computer software to create and orchestrate a soft version of Railtons vast instrumental vocabulary, modelled from a large series of cello improvisations inspired by objects such as an Egyptian figure, pots, and old computer boards, as well as tales of pre-revolution Russia from his Grandfather. Railton added solo cello to the manipulated results, before these quasi-improvisations were recombined into the works filigree matrix during final co-production with members of ZKM in Karlsruhe, Germany.
