Charming Hostess: the radical vocal trio April 1, 2005

don't miss CHARMING HOSTESS, the radical vocal trio, this Friday as they perform a beautiful a capella mix of Jewish and African diasporas incorporating doo-wop, pygmy counterpoint, Balkan harmonies and Andalusian melodies. It?s gorgeously textural, deeply engaged with questions of authenticity, montage and the effect of music on nonverbal languages. But don't take our word for it -- have a listen here:
