Patricia Brennan: Maquishti (Valley of Search) Limited Edition Smoke Vinyl

Props to Valley of Search for this debut!!

From the one-sheet:

Mexican born, New York-based vibraphonist, marimbist, improviser and composer Patricia Brennan’s debut includes twelve original instrumentals […] composed and performed solo […] on vibraphone and marimba. Employing unusual performance techniques and occasional electronics, many of the compositions were borne from improvisations created live in the studio […] At times exploring silence and space, stillness and patience the album investigates new sonic territories with an endless sense of curiosity.

*Brennan is also a member of Phalanx Ambassadors, a project led by pianist Matt Mitchell, the Webber/Morris Big Band, and Tomas Fujiwara’s 7 Poets Trio along with cellist and composer Tomeka Reid.

**Brennan has performed with many renown musicians including singer and composer Meredith Monk and Theo Bleckmann, saxophonists Jon Irabagon and Scott Robinson, trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire, drummer Marcus Gilmore, guitarist Mary Halvorson, .among any others.
