Gatto Marte - Faust
SKU
09-BA 094
"Gatto Marte is a chamber ensemble of classical background with an attitude close to jazz and a twist of folk music, from Eastern Europe through the Mediterranean towards the North. Piano, double bass, violin and bassoon are the protagonists of this musical journey. The music is descriptive and imaginative, it often recollects little stories, which can be comical, tragicomically dramatic, with an ironical touch. This attitude has led the ensemble to compose music for silent films such as Malombra by Carmine Gallone, The Gold Rush by Charlie Chaplin, Balloonatic by Buster Keaton, A Woman by Charlie Chaplin and lately Faust by Frederich Murnau." This recording adds drummer Michael Strunk and was recorded live, January 22, 2005 at the Golden State Theatre, Monterey, CA.
