Product details

Multi award-winning pianist and composer, Andrea Keller has created a sublime meditation on the omnipresent sentiments of death, grief and loss. Incorporating poetry that spans centuries and the globe, Still Night: Music in Poetry is a song-cycle composed by Keller (2016), and features Australian jazz vocalists Vince Jones and Gian Slater, alongside Julien Wilson (saxophone/bass clarinet), Stephen Magnusson (guitar) & Andrea Keller (piano). As Robert White so eloquently wrote, "Meditating on a beautiful expression of sadness can help to provide a thoroughly uplifting sense of consolation". Still Night engages listeners in a sensitive - and ultimately consoling - conversation on this delicate topic.

Duration: 55 min.

Liner booklet includes programme notes and text of the original poems.
