RADIANCE comprises twelve new album-length pieces, each of them following the concept of stasis, the unfolding of time and sustained
frequencies, deep listening, and immersive soundscapes. The sequence for the whole set is conceived as one long, growing album in twelve parts:

For voices and gongs

V. FOR FRANZ WRIGHT (September 2016)
For piano, tabletop zither and shortwave radio

VI. KEPLER (October 2016)
For piano and planetary movements

VII. PROCESS (November 2016)

VIII. TO HAVE ELEMENTS EXIST IN SPACE (December 2016)
An interpretation of Earle Brown’s seminal graphic score December 1952*

IX. FOR MORTON FELDMAN (January 2017)
For percussion and strings*

X. HER DARK GAZE DROWNED IN LIGHT (February 2017)
A re-narration of Carl Theodor Dreyer’s Vampyr
