Music for Droney Strings

Compositions and Improvisations by four Seattle experimentalists:

Salma Zenia, violin
Noel Kennon, violin
Lori Goldston, cello
Kole Galbraith, double bass

Kole Galbraith is a musician and sound artist originally from Wenatchee, Washington. He settled in Seattle after living in Germany, Mexico, and Austria. While traveling, Kole immersed himself in improvised experimental music across multiple genres ranging from free-jazz, harsh noise, new-music, and metal.

Lori Goldston is a cellist and composer from Seattle. Her voice as a cellist draws connections between far-flung idioms, and explores timbral thresholds of her instrument. Her work glides easily and across borders, building on a restless curiosity and a long history of collaborations with bands, orchestras, composers, film makers and choreographers.

Noel Kennon is an artist living in Seattle, WA. This work is currently questioning the role and purpose of sounding in society as well as continued research into the actualities of this perception called sound.

Salma Zenia is a violinist and composer. As a violinist with a long standing practice, she explores contemporary works written by 20th century composers or underrepresented living and emerging composers.
