Alive in Cappadocia
A film my Mu Tunc (@diaryofmu)
Audio mixed & mastered by Randall Dunn (@randallbdunn)
Alive in Cappadocia celebrates the dominance and dynamism of Zola Jesus’s powerful voice with spellbinding live performances of “Desire” and “Into The Wild” from her latest release Arkhon, as well as stand out classics “Skin” and “Siphon”.
Shot in a 2,000 year old chapel these solo piano performances are simply that; Nika Rosa Danilova alone, at the piano without any additional embellishments. What you hear is Nika's commanding voice augmented only by the natural echoes and sonics of the space itself.
Created while in Turkey on the video shoot for “Lost,” director Mu Tunc and Zola Jesus shot Alive in Cappadocia in the ancient chapel, historically known as Bezirhane, the remains of which were unearthed during construction of the Argos Hotel. Initially used to produce linseed oil, over its history Bezirhane also served as a monastery frequented by monks, and as a caravansary frequented by Silk Road travelers. Chosen for its historical richness, its topography, and its acoustics, this stunning space is as awe-inspiring as the performance itself.
