VANESSA WAGNER – Inland

Beschreibung

Described by newspaper Le Monde as „the most delightfully singular pianist of her generation“, Vanessa Wagner’s career mirrors her personality: original and committed, combining classical repertoire, contemporary creations, ancient instrumental techniques, chamber music, with her own videos, electronic music, dance and theatre references. With
this new album, the 50th release on Infiné, she continues to explore the world of minimalist composers. On Inland, the repertoire is more contemporary than ever and highlights a set of pieces, mostly rare or unavailable to date (Moondog, Nico Muhly (Björk), William Susman, Bryce Dessner (The National), Gavin Bryars) and some others well known (Philip Glass, Wim Mertens, Michael Nyman) that Vanessa Wagner performs with her classic pianist background and velvet sound. This album is an introspective journey both calm and violent. A soothing album to listen to with headphones, at night or during a trip.
