Album Notes & Community Reviews

The acclaimed Italian composer partners with the renowned JACK Quartet to execute a series of incredibly dense, textural works. Pushing traditional string instruments to their physical limits through extended techniques, the compositions blur the line between acoustic performance and electronic sound design, resulting in a deeply ominous, atonal listening experience.
