Our Take

It's time to dive into the ethereal and enigmatic world of EXAUDI and James Weeks with their latest offering, "Passion Texts." This album is a dynamic mix of music by Wolfgang Rihm and Luigi Nono, guaranteed to leave you feeling equal parts bewildered and enlightened.

Rihm's compositions on this album are a swirling, cacophonous symphony of sound that will transport you to another dimension. His innovative use of dissonance and unconventional harmonies creates a sense of tension and release that is both thrilling and disorienting. It's like being caught in a musical tornado – exhilarating, but also a little terrifying.

And then there's Nono, whose minimalist approach to composition is a breath of fresh air amongst the chaos of Rihm's work. His sparse, delicate melodies are like a cool breeze on a hot summer day, soothing and calming in their simplicity. It's a striking contrast to Rihm's bombastic energy, creating a yin and yang effect that is both harmonious and jarring.

Overall, "Passion Texts" is a mesmerising journey through the avant-garde landscape of contemporary classical music. EXAUDI and James Weeks have crafted a truly unique and immersive listening experience that will challenge your perceptions of what music can be. So buckle up, dear reader, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the minds of these musical visionaries.
