Search - Victoria Jordanova :: OUTER CIRCLES

Victoria Jordanova is an astonishing talent, more than just a harp player. Her music is haunting, heartbreaking even. The tones are surreal, eerie, barely discernable as a known instrument at times. The main piece, "Outer Circles" is a about the 9/11 tragedy. Saying that it is a hard subject to tackle is the understatement of the century (this or last), but tackle it she does. Dark, brooding, yet with a strange and shimmering beauty illuminating hope underneath it all. The second piece "I Campani" is a mix of bell sounds recorded during a recent residency in Italy, mixed with harp and electronics. These ancient-modern instruments meet to create depth and warmth. To describe this music is not only to describe the most poignant moment in your life, but all aspects of it at once. Keats once wrote "Beauty is truth, truth beauty, ?that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know." ?Nuf said.
