Marc Ribot's boldly beautiful world of atavistic horror reaches its apex in Scelsi Morning, a startling and eclectic collection of Marc's most powerful compositions for chamber ensemble. Touching upon Ayler, Morton Feldman, minimalism and of course the ritualistic music of Italian composer Giancento Scelsi, to whom the work is dedicated, Scelsi Morning features plenty of Marc's searing guitar work, lush orchestrations for clarinets and strings, and primitive noise percussion.
