Lumière / Opalińska & Whates
2012-01-21
Lumière—an engaging new album from Mira Opalińska and Douglas Whates. With a lightness of touch and a darkness of sound, the piano and bass duo improvise on their unique arrangements of works by classic film and world cinema composers.
Lumière—recorded with a single stereo pair of microphones direct to 2‑track
at Filharmonia Podkarpacka, Rzeszów, Poland on 29–30 October 2011.
[Front cover artwork: Jennifer Coates]
Whether reinventing the familiar or unearthing unexpected gems, the duo explore these moving and expressive scores to create inspired, extraordinary music of brooding intensity.
℗2012 Natural Studio Records
Release Date: 21 March 2012
