Riparian [LP]

Eyvind Kang - Riparian [LP]

Riparian is the first solo instrumental album by composer and multi-instrumentalist Eyvind Kang. Centered on the viola d'amore Riparian unfolds two longform improvisations rooted in his self-devised concept of ecomusicality. Produced by Randall Dunn the record offers a meditative textural sound world shaped by Kangs deep lineage in microtonality raga and spiritual jazz. Music video features a commissioned performance by NY Yang Sheng Tai Chi Qi Gong Association in Chinatown NYC. Warm resonant and quietly intense Riparian invites deep listening across time and form.
