Release description:
Direct whilst elusive, sumptuous and austere, precise yet expansive.
David Wenngren’s Library Tapes is an amalgam of beautifully juxtoposed expressions and deftly described phrases.
Found sounds and field recordings crackle and smoulder as Danny Norbury’s cello teases out a foundation for fragile piano melodies. While those passages so gentle and elegant form the spine of David’s sound, its the sense of patience - of compositional balance which lifts his work to the stratosphere.
These are 11 windows to a world of timeless suspension, of grace and of glorious decay.’
