Hypnotic Memories
This charming and somewhat dark musical offering is a departure from this composer’s usual “epic” style. Originally scored for fifteen players, this piece is much more intimate than the composer’s thickly orchestrated grand works. Stylistically, a minimalistic compositional approach is used as the melodic content slowly unfolds over shifting ostinato patterns.SKU: AL47290 -
