ODG150 : Mac Dunlop Quartet / Live at the Aberfal Blauhaus
"On November 17th, 2020 MDQ performed these seven 'daily thread' compositions for the first time at the Aberfal, using a combination of streaming technology and live recording. The atmosphere is hard to describe, partly because of the pandemic restrictions on events and live performances at the time. If the recent slowdown teaches us anything, its that we must do what we can to heal the wounds we've made to the planet, and try to imagine into reality a more just and equal future for everyone.
Peace be with you." Mac Dunlop
Peace be with you." Mac Dunlop
