In 2006 Paiste AG of Switzerland generously
supplied me with some of their outstanding
Paiste Sound Alloy bronze.
In return I gave them 3 creations
that I forged in this alloy.
I created a selection of gongs with hammered
reliefs such as Sword, Celtic Cross and Pentagram.
Other gongs were in my sculptural line
with Pagan horns and hammered ridges.
Also I made 2 ride cymbals, a Shaman Stick,
small Shell gong chymes, a horned gong
Glockenchymes and many smaller forgings.
The performances in London Vaults in March 2007
were the first public exhibition of these works
and the recordings are released on
FMR Records as London Vaults.
I'd like to thank Erik Paiste and Paiste AG
Switzerland and Trevor Taylor at FMR in England.
