Kali Malone & Leila Bordreuil - Music For Intersecting Planes [LP]

Music for Intersecting Planes marks the first collaborative release between cellist Leila Bordreuil and organist Kali Malone. Minimal in means yet expansive in effect, the music unfolds like beads on a thread, punctuated by silence and deep breaths. Shifting currents of air pressure emerge from the manually pumped organ, enriched by the cellos finely drawn harmonics to form a microscopic and granular perspective of timbre. Interference patterns spin the sound mass as Malone and Bordreuil play against the stillness of sine waves. Church bells ring in the distance. Undulating feedback gives rise to insistent calls from the organ before yielding to a tragic cello motif. The album then closes with the brief and jubilant pizzicato exclamation, a€œEndless Dance of Eternal Joy.a€_x000B__x000B_Recorded by candlelight at the Temple de Saint-ThA©oduoe in La Tour-de-Peilz in Switzerland, the music balances patience and intensity, composition and chance, severity and tenderness. In this collaboration, new facets of both artists come to light: Bordreuils playing with heightened tonal and formal clarity, and Malones organ work in its most raw and textural form._x000B__x000B_Music for Intersecting Planes is a meeting of minds honoring the timeless intrigue of acoustic phenomena.
