PART II: Sarah Pagé & Patrick Graham

Lancement d’album: Littoral States

Sarah Pagé, harp, bass koto, sarangi, électroniques
Patrick Graham, percussion, waterphone, hamon, Nano Garden, électroniques

Littoral States is a shifting, reciprocal album that explores affinities beyond time, place, tradition and medium. Montreal musicians Sarah Pagé and Patrick Graham employ a unique array of instruments (including harp, bass koto, sarangi, percussion, waterphone, hamon and electronics) to evoke abstracted textures from deep within the Anthropocene. Working in close collaboration with Brussels-based visual artist Tamar Kasparian, the project hangs together as six interwoven sonic compositions accompanied by beautifully integrated artwork. The wordless music carries the listener through a series of heady atmospheres, balancing a sense of urgency with an open-ended reflexivity. Littoral States is rooted in a profound sense of affinity, awe and anguish for the natural world.
