Jhon Montoya - Mohs by Fabrica Musica published on 2013-07-11T13:08:01Z Fabrica presents MOHS, the second album of violinist Jhon William Castaño Montoya, a Colombian researcher in Fabrica’s Music team, realized in cooperation with some Fabrica collaborators: Fabio Calzavara (sax), Isaac De Martin (guitar), Ilaria Gava (piano) and Giulio Padoin (cello). @montoyacolombia MOHS is inspired by the studies of the German scientist Friedrich Mohs, who in 1812 devised a scale to classify minerals. The organising principle for the scale was hardness, comprising ten grades from talc to diamond, ordered in terms of whether each successive mineral was able to scratch the surface of the previous one. Montoya has developed this idea by gathering sounds from stone. Integrating the rhythms with harmonic structures, he fuses personal influences with material experimentation, not in order to classify his own emotions, but to penetrate the relationships that binds one with another.
