Programme Note

In Inuit tradition the shaman rides the sound of the drum to and from the spirit world. In Ilimaq, the drummers lead us on a journey through soundscapes drawn from the natural world, and from the inner resonances of the instruments themselves.

Reviews

"The electronic backdrop – a mix of sampled sounds and digital delays of Kotche’s performance – creates an all-enveloping aural environment in which the live solo playing is the focus."
Andrew Clements, The Guardian
18th November 2015
"The one-man percussion orchestra was sonically heightened by the digital delays that blasted through the speakers. Though we were underground, Ilimaq seemed to seep into the New York City streets.”
