There Is No Other (CD)
Details
Details
Rhiannon Giddens’ latest album “there is no Other”, recorded with Italian multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi, was produced by Joe Henry and tracked over an intensely productive five day period in Dublin, Ireland. “there is no Other” is at once a condemnation of “othering” and a celebration of the spread of ideas, connectivity and shared experience.
Tracing the overlooked movement of sounds from Africa and the Arabic world and their influence on European and American music, “there is no Other” illuminates the universality of music and the commonality of the human experience. The album comprises a mix of original songs penned by Giddens and a diverse set of interpretations ranging from Ola Belle Reed’s “I’m Gonna Write Me a Letter,” and Oscar Brown, Jr’s “Brown Baby,” the Italian traditional “Pizzica di San Vito” to the aria “Black Swan” by Gian-Carlo Menotti.
