murky subterranean rumblings define the ground of the beginning of this music, then muted trumpets and strings edge into the cloudy hovering aether as the emotive colour locates squarely on the reddish-hued bronze and the gold. this would be stunning music if left at that. but it is the scale of these soundscapes that draws the listener in beyond its raw physicality, past the emotional, and into a sense of something comprehensive, utter, and thoroughly present. the space these soundscapes occupy is overwhelming but not frightening. there’s a sense of insight, of seeing well-beyond but with the assurance that you are not travelling alone and without care. indeed, i have the sense that there is an angelic presence winging you on its back. beautiful and awe-inspiring. steven

This is a very moving show, it hovers between impossible and unreachable situations in the future and the deep pain of life. Nevertheless a very grotesque and timeless soundscapeconcert! Thanks DGM.
