Carol Genetti & Peter Maunu
Carol Genetti is a Chicago-based vocalist whose work encompasses sound and visual art media. Her practice is grounded in free improvisation, with a desire to unlock subconscious ideas and release unintended outcomes. Her vocal palette is primordial, existing in a space where “language” and “music” have yet to be formulated into familiar cultural patterns. She has performed with improvising musicians, including Jack Wright, Birgit Ulher, Jon Mueller, Claire Rousay, Peter Maunu, Eric Leonardson, Olivia Block, Jim Baker and many others. Most recent recordings include a trio release with Birgit Ulher and Eric Leonardson, “horizontal shift” (Amalgam Music); a duet with Claire Rousay “Live at Elastic Arts” (Astral Spirits); and a collaborative release with visual artist Gwyneth Zeleny Anderson “Chyme” (Suppedaneum).
A transplant from the Los Angeles music scene, guitarist/violinist Peter Maunu has toured, performed and recorded with a long list of diverse musicians including Charles Lloyd, Jean-Luc Ponty, Bobby McFerrin, Tony Williams, Billy Cobham, Charlie Haden, Archie Shepp, and Grace Slick. As the guitarist on the Arsenio Hall Show, he performed nightly with legends like Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Ringo Starr, Madonna, Ray Charles, NWA, Public Enemy, and many more. Additionally, Peter contributed to the soundtracks of film scores including Crash, Bobby, Food Inc., and tv shows Chicago Hope, Arrested Development and CSI New York. Since relocating to Chicago, he has performed and recorded with improvisers Jack Wright, Gerrit Hatcher, Julian Kirshner, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Zoots Houston, Dave Rempis, Tim Daisy, Michael Zerang, Mars Williams, Jim Baker, Carol Genetti, Tomeka Reid, Katherine Young, Jason Roebke, Avreeyal Ra, Ed Wilkerson Jr., dancer Ayako Kato and many others. In addition, he founded, curates and performs at Splice Series, a bimonthly improvisation series at the Beat Kitchen in Chicago.
