The Musicians
Per & Eileen Hultquist have been playing Didjeridu for many years. Although their musical backgrounds were planted in their childhood years, the experience waited 50 years to take root. Recently as an adjunct to Didjeridu, throat singing and overtoning have also found their way into their lives. The wonderful new percussive Swiss instrument relative to the steel drum, the hang, is a recent addition as well.
Tessalin Green, born into a family of classical musicians, has blissfully explored music throughout her life. After enjoying a number of years as a vocalist/songwriter playing electric bass and keyboards in original rock bands in Austin, Texas, Tessalin was drawn to the beauty of the Colorado wilderness and the richness of the Boulder world-music scene. She met Per and Eileen at an African drumming class, connected in heart, and began to play together. Tessalin provides the melodic keyboard foundation for the compositions on the CD which were mostly improvisations-in-flight captured in the net of Per's Korg D1600 multitrack recorder. Love and laughter have given them wings to fly free.
Sandra Wong is a classically trained violinist who is adept in a wide range of styles, including Celtic, Bluegrass and Swedish Folk, and is a master of the art of improvisation. In addition to violin, Sandra plays the Swedish instrument "Nyckelharpa" and can be heard at many venues regionally. Her passionate offerings, as you will hear, are divinely inspired rainbows of sound.
