About this product
The compositions on this album, written between 2022 and 2024, form a conceptual suite and an observance of the mental dances that we construct to understand acts of passage; the ways that we commune, memorialize, and carry symbols back into the world beyond representation.To this end, The Head as Form'd in the Crier's Choir engages two references to the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus Rilke's Sonnets to Orpheus, a collection of poems from 1922, and Monteverdi's L'Orfeo, an early baroque opera from 1607.The Head as Form'd in the Crier's Choir follows on from the last two albums, which were attempts to begin bridging the gap between the fixed electroacoustic pieces that emerge in Davachi's home studio and her slow-paced, somewhat open-form chamber writing, in which each performance presents a new structure and each iteration offers the path to a new composition and deeper meaning. Album Tracks 1. Prologo 2. Possente Spirto 3. Crier's Choir 4. Trio for a Ground 1. Res Sub Rosa 2. Constants 3. Night Horns

It was once said that listening to Antiphonals was, Inchlike listening to a progressive rock album except it's just the keyboard parts.Inch As the second full-length LP on Late Music, Davachi offers here a slow and sedate solo affair composed with the various horns and woodwinds of the mellotron alongside organs, pianos, harpsichord, and more quiet delights.

![Sarah Saviet - Spun - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/54c11f36-a40f-4842-b142-da6f6ba37f49.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
The five works on Sarah Saviet's debut solo album each explore resonances and textures on the violin in unique ways. In Liza Lim's The Su Song Star Map, the scordatura and throaty bow gestures create a sensual and sonorous sound world, while Lisa Streich's Falter instructs the performer to 'be a lepidoptera' (a moth or butterfly) and focuses on lighter, more wind-born gestures. Evan Johnson's Wolke über Bäumen played with gut strings and baroque bow involves constant re-tuning of the instrument, allowing for and delighting in the inconsistencies produced in sounds and phrases. Arne Gieshoff's spun is the most outwardly virtuosic work on the album, and Lawrence Dunn's Habitual focuses on a private expression of an inner song. Album Tracks 1. The Su Song Star Map 2. Falter 3. Wolke Über Bäumen 4. Spun 5. Habitual
