On East of Chelsea, Terry Pender proves that the mandolin can hold its own in any genre. The album’s first half breaks new ground with mandolin arrangements of electronic music by Richard David James, better known as Aphex Twin, whose hauntingly beautiful music is reminiscent of Erik Satie’s minimalism. On the second half, Pender is joined by fellow members of the Chelsea Strings ensemble, jazz guitarist Felix Lemerle and veteran bassist Thomas Hubbard, to perform swing tunes by such legends as Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, and Keith Jarrett.
