Cityofsalt GIGI GALORE Beirut City Of Salt is the trio of clarinet, oud and electric guitar which draws on some of the more untrodden traditions of group improvisation to map out what could be called a Third Stream Arabic Music-neither the easy juxtapositions of 'oriental jazz' nor the all too reverential treatments of 'traditional' Arabic Taksim-the trio follows a 3rd path, using other blueprints or sources implicit in the ground of Arabic maqam and Free improvisation to create another 'stream' of improvisation - a more,open, extended approach to form and melody, both 'oriental' and 'occidental'. All tracks are from the forthcoming album Towers Open Fire, recorded during one free-improv session on August 2, 2012. Tracks were recorded, mixed and mastered by Fadi Tabbal at Tunefork Studios, Beirut, Lebanon.
