Ancient Temples

from 2013 - The Instrumentals by Chris Harris

/

about

This is a song I recorded back in February for FAWM. It features me playing my two favourite instruments, the Theremin and the Chapman Stick touchboard.

When I first heard about the Stick at the beginning of the 80s, I wrote off to Stick Enterprises in California for more information about it. I was expecting to get back a glossy brochure. What I got instead was a beautiful, handwritten letter from the Stick's inventor, Emmet Chapman, in which he explained the philosophy behind the Stick and thanked me for my interest. I still have that letter, and I've been a Stick evangelist for the best part of thirty years. I hope the sounds it makes here will help you to understand just why I love it so much.

I'm still trying to get the music I record to sound like the version I can hear in my head. To do this I've ended up playing every instrument I can get my hands on. These days, I'm closer to "That Sound" than I used to be, but the journey continues.
