Digital Booklet

New York progressive string quartet Ethel drew inspiration for this album from a 40-year-old project by the Environmental Protection Agency in the US. In 1971, the EPA launched Project Documerica, commissioning photographers across America to document the state of the environment and its impact on society, yielding an astonishing archive of tens of thousands of photographs amassed over nearly a decade. Recently digitized, the vivid imagery of Project Documerica inspired Ethel to create Documerica, which taps the archive’s evocative potential and brings its visual and emotional impact into dialogue with the 21st century. The album features works by Ethel members and music the quartet commissioned from four other uniquely American artists, hailing from different regions, backgrounds and generations. Each composer contributes his or her distinctive voice to a score that represents the diversity of America and explores a range of American genres, spanning blues, jazz, Native American traditional, bluegrass and old time string band, all filtered through a distinctly 21st century lens.
