Computer-Generated Orchestras, Aztec Wisdom and Organ Tones

Jennifer Lucy Allan traverses millennia with music inspired by Mayan myths. She also has home-recorded orchestral music created by computers in Osaka, and Swedish church organs.

Jennifer Lucy Allan traverses millennia with music inspired by Mayan myths from Xochimoki - a duo of Aztec wisdom keeper Mazatl Galindo alongside American ethnomusicologist Jim Berenholz. She also has computer generated orchestral music from Osaka’s Futoshi Moriyama and sustained organ tones from Ellen Arkbro, as recorded in a lofty Swedish church.
