Release Notes:
when you get a new hoor-paar-kraat recording,
you never quite know what Anthony Mangicapra
is going to give you. it's always something
new, ambitious and often pretty indescribeable.
This one is no exception and takes hpk to
undiscovered territory. This release works
mainly in the higher register. It's bookended
by two pieces rooted in the sounds of a singing
bowl, or at least that's what it sounds like to
my ears. The centerpeice of the disc, was
created by 'playing' a sculpture by Eric Furman.
It's quiet, beautiful, and creates a sense of
space not often heard in a piece of music.
Numbered edition of 142. Packaged in a tri-fold
cover with art by Anthony Mangicapra with a
vellum overlay.
