Perfect Offering

Perfect Offering invites the listener to journey with the ensemble, inhabiting and exploring four vibrant, imaginary landscapes. Each is underlined by themes of place and space, ecstasy and tranquillity, lightness and darkness, as well as ambience, transience, refraction, and silence. There is a diverse interest in harmony evident in the music collected here - each composer exhibits a distinctive idiolect, ranging from Cassandra Millers entirely white note radiance to Rebecca Saunders's haunting atonal timbralism, Lisa Illean's spectrally-tinged, weathered sounds, and Lawrence Dunn's wonky and surrealist tonalities. Huddersfield Contemporary Records is excited to announce that Perfect Offering is the first release from NMC Recordings in a 3D audio format, with both stereo and 3D audio mixes crafted by Explore Ensemble artistic director and album producer Nicholas Moroz. The CD and digital download versions have been carefully mastered for the perfect stereo listening experience.
