Today we are debuting the hypnotic new video
from Italian-Swiss harpist and composer Kety Fusco, who uses the instrument in unconventional ways to create evocative and haunting soundscapes; watch it below.
In ‘Ma Gnossienne’, which is a reinvention of the famous song ‘Gnossienne N.1’by Erik Satie, Kety works with sounds of vinyl scratched on metal strings, objects struck on the soundboard of the pre-sampled classical harp and analogue effects manipulated live.
Switzerland-based Fusco has embarked on a unique harp sound research. She works with Delta Electric Harps from Salvi Harps, who have taken Kety on as their official Ambassador. Her exploration of harp and effects technology began successfully with the debut of her album DAZED, described by Swiss critics as “a white fly”. Kety Fusco has over 80 concerts throughout Europe, and she is working on the world’s first sound library of non-traditional harp sounds.
