Match&Fuse: Debra Richards with Sun-Mi Hong
12.02.20Representing the alternative in European music and attitude, Match&Fuse takes up Worldwide FM’s purpose of uncovering artists hell-bent on staying true to themselves.
Amongst the new releases for February and March is Second Page: Self-Strewn Portrait by the quintet led by drummer, Sun-Mi Hong. Debra asks about her calling for the drums and how it was moving to Europe from South Korea – and ‘learning to question’. The show starts with a re-imagining of ‘Actions for Free Jazz Orchestra’ originally played by Don Cherry’s The New Eternal Rhythm Orchestra in 1971.
