Icicle Blue Avalanche rolls over the listener with extraordinary, sculpted sounds. The collection features both electroacoustic studio works and solo electric/MIDI guitar and live electronics.Internationally-acclaimed Vancouver clarinetist performs the music of Pierre Boulez, Paul Dolden, Giorgio Magnanensi, and John Oliver. Houle has taken the idea of Boulez' "shadow dialogue" as inspiration for a program of works where the sound of his clarinet becomes the core of rich sound textures.The two works on this recording, La porte (The Door) and Plume, belong to a genre that can be called monodrama: one solo vioce tells a story set to music. In both pieces, the vocal style emphasizes the different levels of the text, that is, the general narration and the characters. The musical accompaniment further evokes the characters and the situations.Henry Kucharzyk is a composer too eclectic to be pigeon-holed. He is one of Canadian music's explorers. - William Littler, Toronto Star
