Hi to all,

 

I am very happy to tell you that my new album "Wounded Breath" has been released in USA by Aucourant Records!

 

Here is the link for the album page :

 

http://www.aucourantrecords.com/catalog.php?op=detail&cid=23

 

Here you can listen to mp3s of all the tracks on the album.

 

The album includes 5 of my prizewinning electroacoustic pieces which I have performed at prestigious contemporary festivals all around the world along with composers such as Paul Lansky, Morton Subotnick etc.

 

The album will be on amazon, itunes, emusic in a  few weeks. If you are interested, it is cheaper to buy directly from the label by the way.

 

Thanks a lot and best regards. Hope you will enjoy the music!
