As we journey deeper into the autumn soundscape the music reflects the progression of the seasons. After the bounty of summer, it's a time of receding, darkening, diminishing…marked by a final blaze of intense color, then desaturation — as life withdraws and retreats.
The music of autumn is complex, with foggy timbres, minor key harmonies, descending progressions, and patient suspensions. It's the sound of withdrawl, deflation, and retreat, as the natural world prepares for the rigors of winter.
On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, a chamber/electronic journey for autumn called FADING WORLD. Music is by LUDOVICO EINAUDI, JAMI SIEBER, JEFF GREINKE, AMIINA, and the KEVIN KELLER ENSEMBLE.
