David Fiuczynski’s Flam! Blam!
a hommage to J Dilla & Olivier Messiaen
“Fiuczynski disarms audiences with his inquisitive spirit and light-hearted audacity.” JAZZTIMES
“Fiuczynski’s settings bring it all to life with humor and excitement...a delightfully eccentric clash of east and west.” JAZZWISE
“Extraordinary.” PROG REVIEW
The seven movements that comprise FLAM!/BLAM! were instigated by Fiuczynski receiving a 2011 Guggenheim Fellowship. Fiuczynski connects Olivier Messian's use of exotic bird calls to Hip-Hop Producer J Dilla’s famous ‘flam beats’ while also referencing the colors of Messiaen’s music, Gagaku, the ancient court music of Japan, and other Pan-Asian ingredients.
