As readers may have guessed, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s inspired directly by the music of Pauline Oliveros, herself now regarded as one of the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153greats\u00e2\u20ac\u009d of American minimalism and feted for her innovative empowering ideas and sensitive performing skills. The work was intended as a realisation of Oliveros\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 deep listening philosophy, but the project gained extra poignancy when Pauline Oliveros died and the musicians decided to turn it into a tribute recording. On Side A, Isabel Latorre plays live at a music festival in 2017, while on the B side we have a composition by Edu Comelles called \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcLa Isla Plana\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 based on Latorre\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s recordings. Latorre\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s side feels sketchy and wispy to me, but at least it has a certain spontaneity, as she strives to match the gift for <g class=\"gr_ gr_11 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear Grammar only-ins replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"11\" data-gr-id=\"11\">intuition<\/g> that was one of Oliveros\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 hallmarks. <g class=\"gr_ gr_10 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"10\" data-gr-id=\"10\">Comelles\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s<\/g> piece is more structured, but mostly flat and uneventful nonetheless. Still, you can discern the breathing lungs of the accordion layered into this piece of processed minimalism. <em>Ed Pinsent<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thesoundprojector.com\/2019\/05\/08\/when-glory-shone-around\/\">The Sound Projector<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3879545495\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=333333\/transparent=true\/\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Minimalist accordion tones from\u00c2\u00a0Isabel Latorre and Edu Comelles\u00c2\u00a0on their cassette tape\u00c2\u00a0For Pauline\u00c2\u00a0(CR\u00c3\u201cNICA\u00c2\u00a0144-2018).
