Description
Guatemalan cellist and composer, Mabe Fratti releases Se Ve Desde Aquà (It Is Seen From Here)
This marks another step in a remarkable run of releases from Guatemalan cellist and composer, Mabe Fratti. It is possibly her most revealing one to date; showcasing a sinuous and tensile sound coupled with a confident and clear-eyed worldview.
Mabe Fratti is always on the lookout for new ways to express herself and to reflect her surroundings; she sees this as a process of continual "sonic transformation". Not that she sees her method as unique: "I believe this happens to a lot of musicians, that in the interim when you finish a record, and you release it you learn [new] things and change your philosophy towards what you want to sound like."
Se Ve Desde Aquà is a decisive shift away from Fratti's most recent works, which were more enigmatic in tone. The rich, multi-layered arrangements heard on 2021's acclaimed long player, Será Que Ahora Podremos Entendernos and egoless collaborations such as the fabulous Let's Talk About The Weather with Malaria legend and Monika supremo Gudrun Gut, created a mystery around Fratti which reveal only certain aspects of this affable musician's character.
