{"product_id":"brook-ekmeles-howl-that-was-also-a-prayer","title":"Brook \/ Ekmeles- Howl That Was Also a Prayer (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eNew York based contemporary vocal ensemble Ekmeles releases \"A Howl, That Was also a Prayer,\" a collection of premieres by Erin Gee, Christopher Trapani, and Taylor Brook that explores innovative territory in vocal writing, notably microtonality and alternate temperaments. Ekmeles is a vocal ensemble dedicated to the performance of new and rarely-heard works, and gems of the historical avant garde. New York is home to a vibrant instrumental New Music scene, with a relative paucity of vocal music. Ekmeles was founded to fill the gap by presenting new a cappella repertoire for solo voices, and by collaborating with these instrumental ensembles. Director Jeffrey Gavett brings a hybrid vision to the group: he is an accomplished ensemble singer and performer of new works, and holds degrees from Westminster Choir College and Manhattan School of Music's Contemporary Performance Program. He has assembled a virtuoso group of colleagues who bring their own diverse backgrounds to bear on the unique challenges of this essential and neglected repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: I. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: II. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: III. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: IV. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: V. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: VI. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: VII. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: VIII. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorman Sextet: IX. -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleep, Scene 4: Abyss [Excerpts Arr.
