Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally conceived as a live 'opera without words', this avant-garde instrumental score showcases the group's mastery of somber, neoclassical chamber music. The recording captures their relocation to Europe and their deep immersion into theatrical, surrealist soundscapes.
