Digital Booklet
|
"[Landfall] is beguiling ... a kind of chamber music for the unconscious mind—stately and decorative, but playing in some dark, fathomless room for which Anderson’s flooded basement, and its whirl of dissolving keepsakes, papers and paraphernalia, provides the ideal symbol."
- The Quietus (Album of the Week)
Landfall is the critically acclaimed collaboration between San Francisco's Kronos Quartet and renowned creative pioneer Laurie Anderson.
“These are stories with tempos. I’ve always been fascinated by the complex relationship of words and music whether in song lyrics, supertitles or voice over. In Landfall, instruments initiate language through our new text software, erst. The blend of electronic and acoustic strings is the dominant sound of Landfall. Much of the music in this work is generated from the harmonies and delays of unique software designed for the solo viola and reinterpreted for the quartet. In addition, there were elements of the optigan, a keyboard that uses information stored on optical discs.”
- Laurie Anderson
