Chiaroscuro on LP

First time on vinyl for Arve Henriksen's heart-wrenching 2004 album, Chiaroscuro. Chiaroscuro was the follow-up to this fantastic trumpet player's debut album, the much acclaimed Sakuteiki from 2001 (RCD 2021CD). BBC Online called Sakuteiki "a thing of rare and compelling beauty... music making as natural and essential as breathing." This time he is joined by drummer Audun Kleive and sound artist Jan Bang to create some very beautiful musical soundscapes where the trumpet is the natural point of focus. There's also more room for Arve's wordless singing, sometimes used to stunning effect with Supersilent.
