Music @ Miwok with Mark Deutsch, Jaron Lanier, Martha Matsuda (Butoh)

Clare Hedin sitting in with…Mark Deutsch & the Bazantar in concert at the beautiful seaside Miwok gallery with guests Butoh dancer Martha Matsuda and muti-instrumentalist Jaron Lanier. A CD release celebration for Mark’s latest album: “The California Street Sessions”.

“…A singular orchestra, the Bazantar is a Pansonicon that resonates from within the very nexus of sound…evoking all the power of Western classical music with the depth and nuance of Eastern traditions…you are listening to the future”.

Martha Matsuda has performed Butoh with the Bazantar for the past two decades. And being Mark’s partner has encoded in her body an empathy bordering on telepathy for the tones and feelings of this one-of-a-kind instrument.
