The Repairmen vow to change your perception
of music in this startling percussion trio recording. Ghatam is a performance
work for an exotic array of handmade, ceramic percussion instruments designed
specifically for the piece by sculptor Stephen Freedman. Besides Ghatam, which
in performance can last over an hour, there are 2 free-improvisations as well,
performed on bottles, buckets, chairs, cymbals, a ratchet wrench and other junk
found in the hall where the recording was produced.
