Title Note

Personnel: Paola Prestini (vocals, alto, percussion, electronics, background vocals); Helga Davis (vocals); Hila Plitmann (soprano, background vocals); Erik Carlson (violin); Tawnya Popoff (viola); Jeffrey Zeigler (cello); Richard Mannoia (clarinet, tenor saxophone); Pablo Rieppi (vibraphone, percussion); Samuel Solomon (marimba); Mark Vanderpoel (electric bass).

Though she's been a player on New York's avant-garde music scene for some time, contributing to numerous film scores and composing pieces for the likes of the Kronos Quartet and the Prism Saxophone Quartet, Paola Prestini waited until 2008 to release her solo debut, BODY MAPS, on the Tzadik label. Though MAPS flirts with drones, dissonant arrangements, and unorthodox instrumentation, compositions like "Limpopo Song", a solo piano piece that harks back to Erik Satie's painstaking minimalism, and "As Sleep Befell", an uneasy union of voice, strings, and clarinet, leaven their harsher avant-garde leanings with gorgeous sonic textures and flashes of surprising melodicism.
