Cantus, Descant (Vinyl)
Barcode: 5060384619088
The new Sarah Davachi record is an 80 minute, 17 track double album meditation on impermanence and endings, framed by minimalistic organ Ètudes and careful harmonic layering. On two tracks the artists own vocals are also heard for the first time. This is the first release on the artists own label, Late Music.
The title of the record Cantus, Descant has both literal and metaphorical meaning and is something of a concept album that addresses the relationship between the two.
Davachi comments: The pervading affect on the album is one that gives reverence to the suspension, the epochÈ, a space where we welcome and attempt to reconcile impermanence. It is an opportunity to go inside oneself, ones sound in order to simultaneously commune with our comforts and that which we mourn, perhaps not unlike the function of a hymn.
