James Weeks: Plain Air [CD]
I have walked out of the body and into the mountain. I am a manifestation of it's total life, as is the starry saxifrage or the white-winged ptarmigan.'Plain Air is a musical response to one of the most extraordinary and celebrated works of nature writing in English, The Living Mountain by the Scottish writer Nan Shepherd. This 53-minute work places Shepherd's stunning, crystalline prose within an expansive and elemental musical landscape. Pianist Siwan Rhys (GBSR Duo) creates an environment of spacious stillness, surrounded by a halo of electronic tone, while singer Lucy Goddard (EXAUDI) retraces Shepherd's path, reciting her text simply as she goes deeper into the mountain world and into herself.Plain Air's slow unfolding across almost an hour of music creates a deeply immersive listening experience in which Shepherd's unique poetic voice, and the transcendental beauty and mystery of the Cairngorms, are vividly brought to life.
