Erased Tapes first introduced Lubomyr Melnyk and his unique continuous music technique to a wider audience with ‘Corollaries’, an album produced by Peter Broderick in 2013. Now he returns with a 24-minute mini album entitled 'Evertina'. Featuring three newly composed solo piano pieces, the long-form EP showcases another side to Lubomyr Melnyk – his more gentle and melodic work.

In 2012 Lubomyr's ears began to notice the remarkable tonal depth of upright pianos. To Lubomyr the upright piano sound is like a natural forest of microcosmic colours. 'Evertina' and 'Awaiting' were created on a middle-aged upright piano at a friend's home in New York in October 2012 – just before Hurricane Sandy hit the city. Some children were listening to Lubomyr as he played in a hotel lobby in Cologne and 'Butterfly' is the piece that he made for them. It was recorded on a battered grand piano somewhere in Switzerland in late 2013, with the lid closed down to soften the effect. ‘Evertina’ will be available on 10” vinyl, CD and download from December 15th.

IN HIS OWN WORDS:

"The piano for me has so many different faces, so many personalities and wonders, it is like life itself, ever-changing yet always holding to a permanence of beauty. Like butterflies that never fly in a straight line but always carry their loveliness with them in their multi-angled paths. I want people to hear these pieces, that are always hidden from the world. I keep them locked away in a quiet place, far from the concert hall. Why do I do that? I guess it is because they are so easy to play, so effortless, I can do them while sleeping. Whereas my more demanding abilities on the piano come out in the forceful nature of continuous playing. There, the new ground is being broken and a new door is being opened for the world. But that does not mean that I am bound by nature or by god to do only continuous music. My heart moves into these pieces just as it moves into the continuous modalities. So here, for the very first time, I am bringing three of these little miniatures to the public view. May everyone enjoy them for their gentle simplicity and quietude.

These three pieces fit so nicely together in spirit, they present a tableau, a tiny triptych that can reach the world without waiting for a major work, they stand beautifully on their own, and do not need an album to surround them with comfort and padding. No, they are what they are, and a short musical interlude as this record gives, is just perfect for their nature."

The cover artwork was created by American artist Gregory Euclide, who also designed the relief cover art for the album ‘Corollaries’.

Lubomyr Melnyk – Evertina

Templars 1959
Guardians of the Cross
'TEMPLARS 1959, Guardians of the Cross' is an epic march that transports us into the mystical world of the Knights Templar and the sacred city of Caravaca de la Cruz, Spain. In this revered place, a fragment of the True Cross is enshrined within its iconic double-armed cross, forging a profound bond with the legendary Order.

The Templars—both monks and warriors—stood as tireless protectors. Their dual nature, devout and combative, echoes through every measure of the composition, like a resonant shield guarding relics and pilgrims alike. The piece embodies the very essence of the 'Guardians of the Cross. '

Through vibrant melodies and immersive soundscapes, the music transports performers and listeners to another era. It is a sonic journey that conjures ancient landscapes and heroic tales, blending diverse styles and languages to unfold a grand narrative worthy of the knights and their enduring legend.

At its core, this work is a musical tribute to an age of mystery, legendary battles, and deep devotion. It invites us to experience the history and mystique that surround both the Knights Templar and the Holy City they are forever linked to.
