Old News
Somehow I managed to delete all news entries from April to July. Looking back I'd like to revisit two videos:
A piano & hang duet that I recorded with the amazing Norwegian musician and producer Bugge Wesseltoft: The Perspective of an Encore
A vuvuzela & hang duet that I recorded before (!) the association football world cup. Looking back I'm almost dissapointed that this video has had more hits than many other videos of mine. I hope that many vuvuzela players can learn from the incredible Mr. Vuvuzela Matt:
Hang the Vuvuzela
In the dates section you find new concert dates in Europe and North America. More dates for the 'Living Room' world tour will be announced soon.
Your I.T. specialist, Manu Delago

Two handsful of sound
My new album 'Made in Silence 2' will be out on the 10th of april. It will contain Youtube's most popular Hang piece Mono Desire
as well as a brandnew piece for 10 layers of Hang: Two handsful of sound
The album also contains two tracks with outstanding guest musicians: Cinematic Orchestra's Stuart McCallum and a string trio with musicians from the London Symphony Orchestra.
In the dates section you find new concert dates. More dates for the 'Living Room' world tour will be announced soon.
Written with two handsful of fingers, Manu Delago

Is it the track from Youtube?
The answer is 'yes', Nurofen uses my piece Mono Desire
- which is also know as 'Hang Drum Solo' - for their current TV commercial. This anti-pain piece has become the most popular Hang piece in the Internet and finally it will be released as part of my new solo CD 'Made in Silence 2'. Four years have passed since I recorded my debut album 'Made in Silence (1)' and I can truly say that my Hang playing got more versatile and mature and that the new tracks are mellower, dreamier and just better than the old ones.
At the same time I have to announce that 'Made in Silence (1)' is no more available on my website but with an email to shop@manudelago.com you can already pre-order the new album and you'll be the first one to get it (in late march)!
In the meantime I'd like to present you part 5 of the Hang & Bass Clarinet Megahits (the first time the I played the Hang without seeing the instrument): James Impossible
Impossible is nothing, Manu Delago

Christmas present?
My original christmas present was a live-clip from my Adventions-Tour but as it is the time of the year when many people eat lots of sweets, I changed my plan and want to set a good example of how to brush your teeth
.
I hope you enjoy my second not-Hang video and I promise to upload more Hang music in the new year. Also, I'll release a new solo album in april 2010. It will include the track 'Mono Desire (Hang drum solo)'
which has been clicked by more than 2 million people and more new compositions for Hang solo.
Have a toothbrushy christmas and a groovy nu year, Manu Delago

Adventions!
I've been working on this album since last christmas. After
all I'm very happy with the result and can proudly announce
that the CD will be released on 24th november.
To be honest, this wasn't an easy project to start with. I
was of the opinion that there are enough christmas albums
out there already but more and more people asked for carols
played on the Hang. So I started thinking about an interesting
concept. Having the Hang and the carols as a beautiful red
thread, I invited 12
guest musicians - playing 12 different instruments - and
arranged 12 pieces based on inter-traditional carols, all
played as different duets and trios.
As a little taster you can watch the recording session of
one of the pieces: Adventions
- Recording Video
Looking forward to seeing you at a concert,
Manu Delago

New Album - Living Room
„…from playful to mellow, a soul-reaching
performance…“ – one of the numerous staggering
feedbacks on the two Living Room concerts.
After playing together in different band-projects Christoph
Pepe Auer and Manu Delago discovered the great complement
of the extraordinary instruments Bass Clarinet and Hang. Combining
these two instruments the Austrian musicians created a new
sound covering a big range of musical styles. This pioneer
project had to be recorded in an energetic but very calm surrounding.
After different considerations the decision didn’t fall
on a recording studio or a concert hall.
A „Living Room“ in Mieming, Austria was the perfect
location for the live concerts on 27th and 28th December 2006.
The exciting ambience of those unforgettable performances
is kept on this pioneer-album „Living Room“.
Living,
Manu Delago

Happy 007
I've just recorded a new album which will be released in March
2007. It's a duo-project with Christoph Pepe Auer on the bass
clarinet and me on the Hang. Two magical live-concerts have
been recorded and the best pieces of the evenings will be
on the new CD.
Feel free to order my Newsletter in the section "contact"!
Best
wishes for 007, Manu Delago

Listen & Watch
The presentation of my debut-album “made in silence”
and my live-band “Manu Delago Handmade” in November
was a great success. On www.myspace.com/manudelago
you can listen to a live-recording of the song “Don’t
forget”. There you’ll find also one more little
hang-clip of me playing in front of some guitar-amps. Of course
I would prefer playing live in front of you but my upcoming
concerts are all in Austria (see Dates).
Thanks
for the support, Manu Delago

Zeitgeisty
According to the zeitgeist I've managed to settle down in
the world wide web. I dare say that I've finished my first
solo-album „made in silence“. On that CD I'm playing
the magical „Hang“. If you have never heard of
this marvellous instrument, please take your time and get
to know the sound of the Hang. The Audioplayer on the top
right will help you with it. If you like the tunes, feel free
to order your copy of „made in silence“!
All the best, Manu Delago
