JEAN-VIN HUGUENIN-NATIVITE, TAPE, 1989, SWITZERLAND



a highly obscure and rather brief tape from this Swiss R.I.O. luminary, whose c.v. includes memberships in Debile Menthol, L'Ensemble Raye and Nimal, the winsome little vignettes heard on Nativite were recorded for a theater production and for the most part seem very much of a piece with the sly whimsy of his work in L'Ensemble Raye (well...at least until "Le Massacre Des Innocents" rolls around near the finale, when things take a turn toward Art Zoydian stridency), though the most finespun and mellifluous dimension of Lars Hollmer's early solo albums also seem a ready touchstone for the species of chiming delicacy at work here. Lovely and disarming work.
