More Info

Nach langer Zeit gibt es doch wieder ganz neues Material unter dem Namen ORGANUM! Dieser erster Teil einer Trilogie beschert uns vier Stücke mit minimal-meditativen Orgel-Drones, die ins Unendlich-Objektlose hineinvibrieren zu scheinen, wobei darin immer wieder kraftvolle Klangpunkte auftauchen (Klavier- und Gongsounds), die das ganze anschieben und der Komposition eine Kraft verleihen, mit der man zunächst gar nicht gerechnet hätte....

"The first album in a trilogy of new material, Sanctus represents the new architecture of the Organum sound. Recorded utilizing an implicit graphic score, the album is comprised of four discrete parts, each a variant of the others. These are not parts as in a movement or continuation of the composition, but rather four distinct audio canvases that represent a continuum of the elements at large. Composed in the spirit of the early Organum material, David Jackman has resurrected the droned-based, percussive turbulence of earlier years with a distinct new form of compositional systems. These new systems are scored for grand piano, Hammond organ, tower bell, and gong. The results convey an ecstatic sense of presence, vast expanse, and, ultimately, infinitude." [press release]
