Sunrise is a breathtaking set of non-idiomatic music. In its compellingly original sound, Rudolph’s trio blurs countless boundaries: between ancient and modern, organic and electronic, live improvisation and postproduction. Their improvisatory explorations take them into undiscovered arenas of sonic invention.
Recorded at Firehouse 12 in New Haven, CT, the trio forged a singular voice by culling inspirations that span the globe and reach back through musical and cultural histories. The instrumentation combines acoustic traditional instruments from Japan, Africa and Europe with electronics to create truly unique orchestrations.
Sunrise is Rudolph’s 63rd release as a leader/co-leader and the result is music that exists on its own terms, reflecting the wonderful alchemy of the artists as they spontaneously create dialogues, unique orchestrations, and sonic moods in an organic way. This bold, experimental approach is an undercurrent that runs throughout Rudolph’s diverse career. As Rudolph explains: “With every record I make, I try to do something have I not done before.”
