The title of the first release in the series, Air Names, came from a nonsense poem he wrote with the help of some very ineffective dictation software years ago. The rest of the recordings ran with the theme of the ancient elements: Air, Fire, Earth, and Water. Those recordings, including the present one, were inspired by his associations with the element in question. Water is slippery, ever-changing, impossible to pin down. Grabois knew he wanted Water Names to be an album with no holds barred, purely experimental, with a heavy emphasis on what could be created with electronics. The French horn is a prominent voice but does not appear on every song. Grabois' two collaborators, John Ferrari (percussion) and Jean Laurenz (vocoder), brought the music to a new level. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDaniel Grabois is the Professor of Horn at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has been a member of the award-winning brass-and-percussion group Meridian Arts Ensemble since 1989, releasing sixteen recordings to date. He had a busy freelance career in New York City before moving to Wisconsin, where he now plays in the Wisconsin Brass Quintet and in the klezmer bands Tsuzamen and MaD Mentshn. He began engaging with electronic music upon his arrival in Madison in 2011, and has produced four solo albums since then: Air Names, Fire Names, Earth Names, and the present Water Names, all released on Summit Records and all featuring the French horn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eWater Names Prologue  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eIndustrial Arts  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eA Life Well Lived  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWater Names \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Party \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Seduction  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eCut to the Chase  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBlues for Twos  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eCarpe Bidet \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eTrouble at Sea  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eColonel of Truth  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLingua Franca  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eMetro Dance  \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWrong Place, Right Time \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eOK Boomer \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eCast Iron \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Leopard  \u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summit Records\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Classical\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56:19 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 03\/20\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 099402845920\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"SUMMIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47201400619257,"sku":"SMT-845","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/SMT-845.jpg?v=1767982850","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/daniel-grabois-water-names-cd","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
