Hybrid Vigor
   Marcos Fernandes

On Hybrid Vigor, percussionist/improvisor Marcos Fernandes presents a collection of globally informed pieces reflecting his multicultural identity and a continuing fascinations with musical cross-fertilization.

Born in Yokohama, Japan of Portuguese/Irish/Japanese heritage, and raised a Catholic in a Buddhist land, hybridization defines Fernandes' world view.  Hybrid Vigor offers a sampling of his musical process, a narrative style incorporating improvisations, avant rock, trance adn sound art.  Guests include Michael Dessen, Lisle Ellis, Philip Gelb, David Gould, and fellow improvisers of the Trummerflora Collective of which Marcos is a founding member.

Comes highly recommended.

This unusual album is an experimental, improvisational hybrid, a milestone of modern music.  Roots and future in one.   A must! -- Volkmar Manteri, Ragazzi Music
