Chewing Pine
album. Crandell has gone on to record several other guitar albums, as well as two mbira recordings for John Zorn's Tzadik label. Crandell's music has recently been featured on Tompkins Square's
Imaginational Anthem Vol. 3

"Hypnotic and beautiful music for mbira from an American maverick in the Terry Riley/Harry Partch tradition. A colleague of Leo Kottke, John Fahey and Thomas Mapfumo, Richard Crandell has been captivating audiences with his intricate mbira tapestries for years. Minimalism meets world music in this charming and delicate series of West Coast etudes for modified mbira."

Spring Steel
Label:
TZADIK
Format:
CD
Price:
$14.50
Catalog #:
TZ 8041
"Another remarkable recording by the quirky Oregon composer/performer Richard Crandell, whose first delightful CD For Tzadik
Mbira Magic
hit several best ten lists for 2004. Adapting and retuning traditional
shona
instruments, Crandell draws upon the work of Steve Reich, Terry Riley and John Fahey to create a hypnotic minimalist world through the use of repetition, variation and phasing. Charming and original, this is beautiful and subtle music from a recently rediscovered maverick composer out of the early days of West Coast minimalism."
