dust book for viola d’amore [2022-3]
Marco Fusi, viola d’amore
‘In notes for this release, Fusi invokes “marginal, minimal movements of the minute particles of dust, flickering through light”. That captures neatly the impression given by this austere music of floating particles and wavering illumination. Over time, Fusi’s sparse bow strokes take on an almost calligraphic effect…’
— The WIre
Astonishing […] extraordinary. dust book is a work […] to be listened to with as much focus as you can muster, and with as much exclusion of distractions as you can manage. When you give it that sort of attention, you will find yourself hearing the world a little differently - and not only for the fifty minutes of the piece itself, but beyond it as well.
