About Bill Frisell & Eyvind Kang Duet
The Bill Frisell & Eyvind Kang Duet pairs the American guitarist with the violist and composer Kang, who played in Frisell's 858 Quartet alongside Jenny Scheinman and Hank Roberts. That group's album 'Richter 858' was written in response to paintings by Gerhard Richter.
Frisell's long career runs from ECM sessions and Paul Motian's trio to John Zorn's Naked City and a large catalogue of his own Americana-tinged records. Kang moves between composed chamber work and experimental rock, and has written string arrangements for Sunn O))). In the duo, Frisell's looping and gentle effects sit under Kang's long, bowed lines.
