Item Description
Music and Poetry of the Kesh is the documentation of an invented Pacific Coast
peoples from a far distant time, and the soundtrack of famed science fiction
author, Ursula K. Le Guin's novel Always Coming Home. For "Music and Poetry
of the Kesh", the words and lyrics are attributed to Le Guin as composed by
Barton, an Oregon-based musician, composer and Buchla synthesist (the two
worked together previously on public radio projects). The songs of Kesh are
joyful, soothing and meditative, while the instrumental works drift far past the
imaginary lands. "Heron Dance" is an uplifting first track, featuring a Wéosai
Medoud Teyahi (made from a deer or lamb thigh bone with a cattail reed) and
the great Houmbúta (used for theatre and ceremony). "A Music of the Eighth
House" sends gossamer waves of the faintest sounds to "float on the wind." Like
the languages invented in the vocal work of Anna Homler, Meredith Monk, and
Elizabeth Fraser, the Kesh songs and poems play with the shape of voice.
