About Jonah Parzen-Johnson & Lau Nau
Finnish composer Lau Nau, aka Laura Naukkarinen, and American baritone saxophonist Jonah Parzen-Johnson cycle between moments of knotty ambience, whispered melody, and innocent tinkering, as the duo improvises over narrative scores composed by Parzen-Johnson. Jonah Parzen-Johnson & Lau Nau are each prolific and celebrated creators on their own, with 22 albums released between the two of them, but in this fresh conversation, something completely new comes to life, where Jonah’s fragile baritone saxophone melody begins and where Lau’s live-sampled, processed, and re-synthesized accompaniment ends. As the improvisations develops, a cloud of ethereal fragments forms into a lattice of melody and texture that can sound both delicate and resilient at the same time.
