is the title of Which Doctor Watson?\u2019s stage production and debut CD release.<\/span><\/p>

Ancient and modern technology collide head-on in \u201ccircular hymns\u201d , a musical journey to the ends of the earth and beyond. The didgeridoo and the digital sampler, both circular in the nature of their elements combine to reveal a new, unchartered world of music experience.<\/span><\/p>

The personnel constellation of Which Doctor Watson? is shrouded in myth and misinformation. Its eclectic selection of team-members work outside accepted limits of taste and style conducting wild experiments in sonic research and the aural boundaries of poetry.<\/span><\/p>

McGrath the front man, plays didgeridoo, alto saxophone, percussion, xylophone, guitar and vocals live, samples the music then arranges the samples to compose a rich variety of songs and sound sculptures that are highly original, moving and entertaining. Ballads, hymns, poems, thundering jigs and urban blues and atmospheric instrumentals offer a constant change of style and pace to the program of the circular hymns concerts and CD. Frauke Marie blesses the project with rich vocal prowess weaving otherworldly melodies and emotional intelligence into the heady mix of Which Doctor Watson musical brews. Andr\u00e9 Schulz, the mad inventor, keeps wheels from falling off the runaway train. His percussive and directorial contribution lend vision and order to an entity born of the darkness of original chaos.<\/span><\/p>

The \u201ccircular hymns\u201d project, written by Matthew McGrath, is forged in the fulcrum of darkly joyous experimentation and exploration of sound and passion but also draws on his 25 years experience in Berlin as an Australian poet, musician and artist. Each song is built around its lyrics, texts are central to much of the music. The instrumental works are set free to explore unknown musical territories. The didgeridoo and the \u201cJam Man\u201d sampler combine to create unusual but moving music never heard before. Songs of reflection, passion and irreverence.<\/span><\/p>

The circular nature of repetition in the didgeridoo, of one the world\u2019s oldest musical instruments and the digital sampler, one of the newest, gives the project its name.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
