Angèle David-Guillou - V. For Visconti

"V for Visconti follows more of my baroque obsessions, using saxophones and French horns in registers traditionally assigned to medieval instruments, in Southern Europe baroque music especially. Through this anachronistic use of modern brass instruments and fast repetitive melodic lines, I was longing to create a feeling of both ancient and new, a sort of medieval retro-futurism. The title is Inspired by the beautiful 15th century Visconti-Sforza tarot deck, celebrating the marriage of Maria Bianca Visconti, also known as the "warrior woman", after she led an army of men and successfully defended the city of Cremona from the Venetians." - Angèle David-Guillou

"En Mouvement" is out on LP, CD and download on October 13th 2017.
