'Karnofsky's Score' by Teresa Cos is a musical journey inspired by the Karnofsky Performance Scale used in medical oncology. The album explores the emotional spectrum within the scale's extremes. Guitar improvisations and minimal harmonica elements echo the dichotomy of 'normal' and 'dead', revealing a range of fleeting emotions and creating a haunting atmosphere. An imagined soundtrack for a film in the making, 'Karnofsky's Score' offers an evocative sonic experience that leans against conventional boundaries.[info sheet from distr.]
