Some photos from the mini-tour

This image was taken just before the Montreal show by our lovely and multi-talented friend Veronika von Volkova.

The set-up for Fernando Rocha's hyper-kalimba


Katelyn Clark doing some last-minute tuning before a concert. This instrument is a 1772 original, requiring the tuning to be at 415, and the parts transposed!


While some of our acquaintances suggest sawing off the toy piano cases at the rods to make travel easier, we could not possibly do this to our lovely Schoenhut models.

Watch a short fragment of "A La Luna" for hyper-kalimba and electronics by Fernando Rocha and Ricardo Cortes (Pollack Hall, Montreal, 16 November 2007). This instrument was designed by Fernando Rocha and Joseph Malloch.
