Format: CD
Barcode: 7033662026302
Release Date: 20th November 2020
Genre: Jazz

Recorded live as part of the Melbourne International Jazz Festival in June 2018, ‘Vesper’ is guitarist/composer Kim Myhr’s collaboration with the world-renowned Australian Art Orchestra, led by Peter Knight.

A long-form, immersive work consisting of three movements that add up to a combined running time of just under one hour, it further demonstrates Myhr’s masterly command of complex musical resources and extended duration. ‘Vesper’, which means “evening” in classical Latin, also reunites Myhr with drummer and percussionist Tony Buck, of Australia’s legendary improv trio The
Necks.

Buck was one of the three guest drummers featured on Myhr’s acclaimed Hubro recording ‘You | me’, shortlisted for the 2018 Nordic Music Prize alongside Bjork and Susanne Sundfor.

Tracks: Part One: I Caught A Glimpse Of The Sea Through The Leafy Boughs Of The Pines / Part Two: We Seemed To Grow More And More Pensive, But In Fact We Were Less And Less / Part Three: No Walls, No Ceiling, No Windows
