Allegra Geller is a project of John Prusinski. The music is informed by his background: born in the Middle East, growing up traveling the world, the sounds of different cultures and aesthetics permeated his unconscious and opened his ears and mind to ambient sounds and the resonances of environment. Now a resident of the rural US Northeast, the sounds of the forest and its wildlife have also become part of this creative process. The music of Allegra Geller is a structured collage of mutated field recordings, synthetic textures, and improvised performance. These pieces are intended to be performed live, and the recording reflects that aesthetic; all tracks in this project were recorded direct, live in the studio, with no overdubbing or postproduction of any kind.
