Bio / Background
IN THE SHADE OF ANGELS
New compositions for cello alone and with other instruments. Recorded in a stone church in Vermont, IN THE SHADE OF ANGELS, explores the full range of Friesen's original music - inventive improv's, dark rhapsodies, swinging pizzicato, songful melodies, pulsing rhythm - and includes a captivating duet with the song of a humpback whale. Guest musicians include Tim Ray from Lyle Lovett's band adding sparkle and sweep on piano; Jamey Haddad, percussionist with Paul Simon, in a duet for handdrum and cello; and Jody Elff on electric guitars and laptop.
