Masul

Piano, synthesizer and low saxophone · electroacoustic duo

Masul is the collaboration between Chicago-based keyboardist Paul Giallorenzo and Swiss saxophonist Thomas Mejer. Giallorenzo's piano, synthesizer and electronic sound work meets Mejer's low saxophone and breath-based textures.

Recorded in Chicago in 2004–05, Arousal City (CS084) brings electronics and acoustic improvisation into close contact, with sustained tones, sampled material and an unusually intimate exchange between the two instruments.
