The thundering virtuosity of Chris Corsano’s drums lured me out again this evening. The venue this time was the old Sacred Trinity Church in Salford which has been deconsecrated (heathens that we are) and turned into a space for music and other events. A very good space it was too, with subdued lighting and decent sound. Corsano was on magnificent form, playing another storming improvised set; Mick Flower of the Vibracathedral Orchestra provided chiming drones of unknown provenance. (I still haven’t worked out what peculiar string instrument it is that he plays.)<\/p>\n
The photo above is another blurry product of my poor old Canon as it struggles with low light conditions and no tripod. But even in good light I’d challenge any photographer to adequately capture Corsano’s performance. The stuttering incoherence of this picture goes some way towards showing how it feels to watch him play.<\/p>\n
Update:<\/strong> Gav advises that the church is still consecrated and that Mick Flower plays a shahi baaja<\/em> or, as he prefers (after Klaus Dinger<\/a>), a \u201cJapan banjo<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n Previously on { feuilleton } The thundering virtuosity of Chris Corsano’s drums lured me out again this evening.
