Aries Mond - Cut Off (album preview)

From my newly finished album 'Sight Seeing' - a musical theme and variations depicting different eye conditions.  Using an initial theme, the melody and harmony are taken away, distorted or otherwise changed to musically depict a number of common visual disturbances and conditions, from the sparseness of peripheral vision loss to the hallucinatory Charles Bonnet syndrome.

Come Eluding I

Here is one of the absolutely lovely tracks from the upcoming release from  composer/musician, Mario Verandi, whose beautiful album is entitled "Remansum". This album will be released on June 28th, 2020...

Mario Verandi, "Remansum"      A Tear in the Desert

The London-based vocalist, violinist and pianist’s piece is written for “that very special time of day that’s neither nighttime or daytime: that strange liminal, luminous place where the birds are singing and we’re on the precipice of something new”, she says. 

“The piece reflects all of the changes that we navigate with people close to us. There’s a tension between two keys, but there’s also a gentle pulsing all the way through which doesn’t change, and I suppose that’s the thing that you hold on to, a kind of rudder in these weird seas! I really hope that anybody listening to it will find beauty and consolation in it.”

Alice Zawadzki: My Boy of the Birds

Born and raised in Damascus, Maya is a virtuoso of the qanun, the Arabic zither. “When I was approached to take part in Walking Home,” she says, “the first thing that came to my mind was walking in nature, and the different lines of thought and feelings that stream through me. 

"Because of that, there are different voices in this piece, all of which the qanun performs. I know a lot of people are going through a lot of grief at the moment, and I wanted this music to give them a whisper of hope”.
