专辑简介
(CD + DVD) Featuring Trey Gunn (King Crimson), Quodia 'is a synthesis of music, theater, video art and animation; a psychedelic, contemporary parable' - BBC Moscow.

Quodia has toured in Russia, Norway, Spain, Italy, Chile, Argentina, Mexico and the USA. Each Quodia show is a little different, with improvisations built into the score and performance adaptations to the given space and the particular audience.
The new double-disc CD/DVD, The Arrow, is divided into seven chapters. The CD contains the full piece in audio form, while the DVD adds the visual aspects of the story along with an innovative approach to sound placement in the 5.1 surround sound mixes. In addition, the DVD included a children's audio commentary track (which is a fascinating perspective on the piqued imaginations of our youth when fertilized by modern/ancient storytelling) and special performance-only videos of the Water Woman story told in Russian by Regina Spektor and in Spanish by Nadia Velencia Mazuela. Other guests include Azam Ali, Matt Chamberlain (Critters Buggin', Bill Frisell, Tori Amos), Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson), Dave Revelli, Michelle Kinney, Bear Spektor, and Gino Yevjdevich (Kulture Shock).
