about

Icarus Records proudly presents ICARUS ​TAPES #1: BOW, Icarus Live Session #59​, a live performance
recorded for ​the ​Icarus Radio Show.
One afternoon in March, a Ghent studio at the edge of an arm of the Scheldt river, the 5 musicians of BOW settle down and get ready. After a glance and a deep breath, the 5 fellows leap into the void. BOW takes the gamble for this recorded radio session to improvise its music entirely. With five years of shared musical experience under their belts, the musicians know each other well and understand how to compose in real time. A contrapuntal cell is improvised, a texture sculpted, unexpected sounds arise, the musicians exult and focus on keeping the tension alive without ever breaking it. Immobile, they travel. Experienced, they know what they play. Improvising, they discover, along with the listeners, what they will play. Icarus Live Session # 59 by BOW is a true allegory of the string: tightened to its proper tension to both sound correctly and respond subtly to the attacks of the Bow.
