I'm Sarig Sela, recorder player/composer behind Underground Recorder Garden.

I've spent the last few years pushing the recorder into a progressive rock setting, with the wind instrument carrying the lead voice.

I was genuinely surprised when Ian Anderson heard the music and kindly allowed me to quote his words: "How great it is to see the instrument being played in the hands of a consummate artist."

I'm not imitating Jethro Tull, but Tull listeners will get the spirit: breath, rock energy, old-world melody.

Full album (55 min, 7 tracks) is out today.
If you want one track to start with: the title piece runs 23 minutes through five sections, including a Bach-like fugue and a meditative, heavy passage before the close.

Curious what fellow Tull and prog fans make of the direction.

Here's a short live clip from "Kingdoms Fall":

The album The Last Breath comes out June 26.

Curious what fellow Tull and prog fans make of the direction.

WDYT?

Hi all,

Anyone tried to classify the different musical styles of Jethro Tull music by song?
