We’ve been waiting for pianist Tigran Hamasyan’s upcoming album, Mockroot, for a while now ever since he hinted about it last November when we saw him play in Austin with bassist Arthur Hnatek and drummer Sam Minaie, both of whom are on Tigran’s Nonesuch debut. This new video he released showing the behind the scenes process of making this expansive music. There’s a lot going on in this music and it’s clear here in the making of it, but it’s going to be cool to hear how it’s all going to turn out February 3. Check out the video after the jump.
This is pretty helpful framing for the two songs Tigran released earlier, “Entertain Me” and “The Apple Orchard in Saghmosavanq”.
Mockroot, the upcoming album from Tigran Hamasyan, is out. February 3 on Nonesuch Records. You can pre-order it now on iTunes.
