Fred Frith & gabby fluke-mogul


Fred Frith is a pioneer of the extended electric guitar. He learned to compose in
Henry Cow, developed his song-writing skills in Art Bears, explored his multiinstrumentalism in Skeleton Crew, rocked the house with Massacre and is still doing all of those things, having been in one band or another continuously since 1964! Meanwhile his work has been performed by both Baroque and contemporary music ensembles, along with string quartets, chamber orchestras, and a whole range of groups and artists in the ever-expanding field of semi-popular music. Fred composes extensively for film and dance, and taught improvisation for years at Mills College in Oakland, California and the Musik Akademie in Basel, Switzerland. His life-long passion for improvising has increasingly led him to work with artists who don’t necessarily define themselves as improvisers, including drummer Mariá Portugal, trumpeter Susana Santos Silva, and bricoleur extraordinaire Sudhu Tewari. Fred is the subject of Nicolas Humbert and Werner Penzels’ award-winning documentary film Step Across the Border.
