Mockunas, Liudas

Hydro

Liudas Mockunas' 'Hydro' showcases his technical versatility on soprano and tenor saxophones, rather than any Baltic musical influence. The album features three suites - 'Hydration,' 'Rehydration,' and 'Dehydration' -_all centered around water-related themes. In the 'Hydration Suite,' "water-prepared" saxophones produce liquid-like sounds, blending coastal vibrations with Mockunas' hiccups, seabird-like calls, and delicate melodies. The 'Rehydration Suite' adds powerful circular breathing, emphatic screams, and expressive sweeps, while 'Dehydration' brings everything together with multi-tempo vibratos, cries, and air gusts, pushing the saxophone to its limits.
