Pre-Order: Tana Quartet * Jean-Paul Dessy: Str Qrts & Quintet [New CD]

Jean-Paul Dessy's music occupies a singular place in the contemporary landscape: it does not submit to any school or current, but traces a ridge, stretched between interiority and expansion, between spirituality and sound matter. Each work is a journey, a ritual of sound that calls on the listener to listen with the utmost acuity, where time seems suspended, as if returned to it's original density. This album is the result of this mutual loyalty, of this long-term exploration. It is also the testimony of a unique, living work that continues to move us, to question us, and to draw, in the infinity of the sound spectrum, a profoundly human imprint.
