Piccola Orchestra Gagarin
Paolo Angeli Prepared Sardinian Guitar Voice (Track 6)
Sasha Agranov Cello Loops Voice (track 2)
Oriol Roca Drums Objects

Piccola Orchestra Gagarin is an all-star band, composed by the Sardinian guitarist Paolo Angeli (inventor of a guitar orchestra known internationally, collaborations with Pat Metheny, Hamid Drake, Antonello Salis, Fred Frith), Israeli-Russian cellist Sasha Agranov (Selva de Mar, collaborations with Patti Smith), and the Catalan drummer Oriol Roca (Spanish avant spearhead, Vrack 'trio, with drifts in the pop Refree, Kiko Veneno, La Mala Rodriguez).

VOSTOK - "From up here, earth is beautiful, without borders or boundaries…¡поехали !!!"- Yuri Gagarin
April 12, 1961, Yuri Gagarin makes history as the first human to orbit the Earth. We are in the 60s and there has been a mutation of the wings of feathers and wax of Icarus in VOSTOK, a few square meters capsule, that flying to the stars, makes real what up to a decade before seemed impossible. The trio Piccola Orchestra Gagarin traces in his new album VOSTOK this adventure, leaving behind the beautiful album Platos Combinados, to propose a musical parable in orbits where musical genres are recycled into a compelling mosaic. A futuristic Don Quixote who lands on the wrong spot - Their music synthesizes the paths of three players, who choose the metaphor of the journey in space to blend different flavors: indy rock, pop avant-garde, jazz and traditional music of Sardinia and Russia (re-read à la Tom Waits and Umm Kulthum). The mission is secret and we are not allowed to know the route: fly on the wings of imagination, to retrace and relive the adventure of Gagarin.

Paolo Angeli

Whatever you want to call it, nobody else is doing it quite like this. Paolo Angeli, the Sardinian sorcerer, manually magics beautiful, multi-layered music from his unique prepared guitar: a hybrid orchestra of an instrument with strings going in all directions, foot-pedal-controlled motorised propellers and hammers to create shimmering drones and bass-lines as he bows, strikes, plucks and strums ... more
