"Theo Bleckmann's voice is an instrument nonpareil ... (he) often uses wordless vocals to create luminous webs of sound ... he sings airy tones that evoke medieval chant, Bachlike chorale, Ivesian folk and minimalist drift."
- JazzTimes.com

Origami from Theo Bleckmann explores the unsuspected emotional and expressive possibilities of the voice in an unfettered group context. It is a meticulously constructed, exquisitely detailed collection of songs that ranges across centuries, continents and musical styles for its inspiration. Origami, the ancient Japanese art of paper folding, provides a metaphor for how the music takes shape and enfolds the listener. Bleckmann, a singer with a three and a half octave range, creates lush environments through overdubbing and live electronic layering, embedding the often wordless vocals in diverse rhythms and textures. Shifting from song to sound and from composition to improvisation, he displays a mercurial aesthetic that encompasses (at least) jazz, folk, minimalism, ambient, noise and free improv.
