Title: Never Were the Way She Was
Artist: Colin Stetson
Label: Constellation
Product Type: VINYL LP
UPC: 666561011314
Genre: Jazz
Release Date: 2015-04-28
Number of Discs: 1
Additional Details: 180 GRAM VINYL, DIGITAL DOWNLOAD CARD
Two of Constellation's acclaimed solo instrumental artists join forces on this tremendous new album of original compositions for horn and violin. Colin Stetson has developed a unique and highly-acclaimed voice as a performer/composer, chiefly on bass and tenor saxophones, rallying an array of technical strengths and innovations to make some of the most captivatingly organic, darkly soulful and otherworldly solo instrumental work of recent years with his New History Warfare trilogy. The solo violin work of Sarah Neufeld has emerged more recently, and especially through 2011-2014, in the period between her primary band Arcade Fire's last two albums; she's forged a distinctive and evocative solo violin practice combining rock, folk, ambient and modernist sensibilities, culminating with her debut solo album Hero Brother in 2013. 'Never were the way she was' charts an expansive sonic trajectory with a multiplicity of structures and voicings that belies the fundamental economy of two acoustic instruments combining in real time. The resulting musical chronicle powerfully establishes it's own spatial and temporal horizon; Stetson and Neufeld offer up an impressively immersive integration of composition, performance, timbre and texture. 'Never were the way she was' is a sum quite definitively and thrillingly greater than it's parts.
Tracks:
1.1 The Sun Roars Into View
1.2 Won't Be a Thing to Become
1.3 In the Vespers
1.4 And Still They Move
2.1 With the Dark Hug of Time
2.2 The Rest of Us
2.3 Never Were the Way She Was
