Katalin Ladik - Water Angels (Vinyl LP - 2022 - EU - Original)
"alga marghen proudly presents "water angels", an lp with previously unreleased tracks by katalin ladik, following the monumental "phonopoetics" from 2019. "water angel", the title track, is a side-long work from 1989. it began its life containing a plice of "o fortuna" from carl orff's "carmina burana" and was first staged in an artificial fog on a lake at the 1989 spoleto festival in italy. the texts include fragments of her own lyrics mixed with parts from james joyce and lewis carroll in a kind of sonic-textual collage of processed sounds superimposed to environmental field recordings. one can also hear the composer erno király, her first husband, playing his self-built instrument called "zitherphone", a 58-stringed huge engine of sounds assembling five zithers in a single body, with pick-ups placed on some of the strings.
