INTRO: These days we're so immersed in electronic music, media
and devices, it's almost strange to recall that until roughly a
hundred years ago, _all_ musical instruments were acoustic. Yet
despite the sonic limitations of acoustic instruments, musicians
in traditional cultures around the world were able to create
ambient and contemplative music.
Even today, longtime Hearts of Space favorite STEPHAN MICUS and
others remain committed to the earthy, vital sounds of acoustic
instruments played in new ways and fresh combinations. On this
transmission of Hearts of Space, we take our theme and title from
Stephan Micus' 21st album for the German ECM label, NOMAD SONGS.
A nomad lived a life of constant travel, and traveled with a
purpose. Nomadic cultures have all but disappeared today, but for
centuries they were a key part of the cultural landscape,
extending their music and instruments wherever they traveled.
