Lemurian Sunrise


Steve Kindler and Paul Lloyd Warner - Lemurian Sunrise


Steve Kindler - electric violin
Paul Lloyd Warner - piano

Lemurian Sunrise is a spontaneous collaboration between violin and piano. Recorded on the slopes of Haleakala volcano on the Hawaiian island of Maui, each movement reflects the artists' desire to musically recreate the imagery of nature.

The violin is amplified through a series of tape loop regenerations to broaden the harmonic registration of the instrument, which is used to provide the lush orchestral sonorities heard within these pieces.

The grand piano used in this production, has a full, resonant, bell and harp-like tone. This recording is duplicated directly from the original live performance.

released on cassette in 1981
