Maalstrom & Freya, Meet
CD No Masters 2010 - NMCD 36
Jo Freya meets the
Dutch group Maalstroom at the Musicport Festival in 2008. The collaboration is
continuing until today and, in 2010, the musicians decide to record an album in
Philip Masure’s studio in Belgium.
The album is varied and among the compositions has to be pointed out
"Green Grow the Rushes Oh", a Scottish song that was collected by
Robert Burns. Jo has decided to dedicate it to his father who was a native of Glasgow. The disc presents
also a beautiful cover photograph by the clarinettist Michel Duijves. The
design is the work of Herman
Rienstra and the other photographs the
one of Ineke Oostveen.
