Raphael Weinroth-Browne - Evocation (Official Video)

STREAM EVOCATION: https://open.spotify.com/album/31E2ty... PRE-ORDER NEW ALBUM EMPYREAN: https://raphaelweinroth-browne.bandca... Evocation was originally composed for the contemporary dance production BACH Reimagined with UK-based company James Wilton Dance. Of all of my recent solo work, this track in particular feels like the soundtrack to a film.  With this solemn and stately piece, I wanted to reframe Baroque music through the lens of a modern composition for live-looped cello. Evocation takes a similar approach to Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi – The Four Seasons. Baroque-inspired melodies are interwoven like intricate threads with a cyclical arpeggio sequence that has as much in common with J. S. Bach’s keyboard preludes as it does with Philip Glass and electronic music, while the echoes of long, resonant bow strokes pierce the ornate texture like rays of light through stained glass windows. This succinct piece is as much an evocation of musical voices of the past as it is a timeless love letter to the cello itself.
