about

"Where It Was There It Is" is an exploration of world music through a unifying lens, many traditions have many differences -and yet they all share similarities - rhythm, melodies, lyrical themes - this tells us a lot about the unity of human beings. We are all streaming for and looking at the same things. A lot of traditional music is religious - showing a more overt link between creativity and the creator (ie God). I believe this link is present in all music and so this album becomes, also, a conversation about authorship; is it me that creates the music? Is it tradition? A God of some kind? Am I a puppet or the puppeteer?

"Where It Was There It Is" also comes with a supplementary art-book called "When It Was There It Is" - detailing a personal modern tradition of the author/ composer Pete Piskov, through diagrams, writings and poetry as well as displaying certain connections between cultural themes and music as a study.
