AVIVA ENDEAN Moths & Stars CD Room40 RM4194

 

A beautiful and perplexing album from Australian clarinetist, Aviva Endean, out now on Room40 label.

Eerie and mysterious soundtrack for an insightful and introspective trip that is beyond what we might call the modern composition. It is a rare occasion to listen to not only a truly gifted instrumentalist who has created her own system of composing music but also it shows how much you can achieve by just letting the music lead the narrative.

Aviva is not only skilled within the spectrum of her own instrument but also knows quite a good deal about how to amplify it and how to work with microphones. And at the same time she shows how intuitively and beautifully you can lead by being led - all the compositions here help the listener to actually immerse into the swathe of sounds that can set from microtonal to something on a larger scale.
