_______________________________________________________________________
Eclipse is the long-anticipated second CD by The Aeolian String
Ensemble, following the Lassithi / Elysium disc from 1998. This
new release is a collection of recent, early, and live
material.
The disc opens with Espacios, dedicated to the art and
architecture of Cesar Manrique. Wind patterns emerge,
interspersed amongst distant, radiant tonalities. Zephyrs (air
currents) sustain waves of resonance emanating from the Aeolian
harp, transporting the sound of the strings, while revealing
the surface of the harmonic textures.
The second composition, entitled K1 (1981), first appeared on
the Journey to the End of Night (1986) cassette compilation
with a radically different title. K1 has now been renamed and
re-mastered to deliver its originally intended listening
experience. This early work consists of three movements for
Aeolian harp, harmonic extractions, and voice. Each movement
consolidates elements from the previous, creating gateways
toward new and even more expansive realms.
Concluding the album is the title track, Eclipse, which was
recorded live in the open-air near Bosham Harbour, England on
the occasion of the 1999 Solar Eclipse. Performed
inconspicuously amongst the bystanders observing the Eclipse,
the resulting sounds could most certainly be heard; however,
the performers remained eclipsed by the moon.
A fresh set of shifting, hazy, and spacious compositions for
your total aural immersion.
