The Zarabanda Variations (Release Date: 08.07.26) is a uniquely combined chapbook and musical digital album that explores the historical and present syncretism of Baroque music in 12 original songs, dances, and poems. A group of musicians convened by violinist/composer Keir GoGwilt, and in collaboration with acclaimed poet Edgar Garcia, work at the intersection of free improvisation, microtonal jazz and contemporary classical to bend the historical rhythms, rhymes and resonances of the Baroque. These artists traverse the colonial histories of the zarabanda dance in this unique multimedia collage of contemporary folkloric and improvised traditions, personal reflections, and new compositions.
