David Wenngren’s Library Tapes is an amalgam of beautifully juxtoposed expressions and deftly described phrases.
Found sounds and field recordings crackle and smoulder as Danny Norbury’s cello teases out a foundation for fragile piano melodies. While those passages so gentle and elegant form the spine of David’s sound, its the sense of patience – of compositional balance which lifts his work to the stratosphere.
These are 11 windows to a world of timeless suspension, of grace and of glorious decay.’ Antony Harrison (Konntinent)
