{"product_id":"anthony-romaniuk-on-modes-lp_aec-allp1242-1","title":"Anthony Romaniuk - On modes (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor his third solo album for Alpha, keyboard polyglot Anthony Romaniuk returns to the piano, exploring the seven modes: derived from the major scale, the basis of ancient Greek music but nowadays endemic in folk, jazz, and beyond, each one containing a world of character and mood.Starting with John Adams' Phrygian Gates, Romaniuk devised a programme comprising music by Pärt, Ligeti, Radiohead, and Björk, with his own original compositions; arrangements of traditional Catalan and English\/Scottish music; and improvisations. Continuing his search for a personal and original sound, Romaniuk uses two pianos, including a Klavins upright grand piano (from the collection of Nils Frahm), which, thanks to it's massive soundboard and four-metre-long bass strings, overwhelms the listener. The addition of various analogue and digital audio effects, together with innovative recording techniques, brings the listener into a unique sonic landscape, approaching that of a sound installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"New \/ Vinyl \/ On modes Alpha","offer_id":48980767867188,"sku":"ALLP1242.1","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.fye.com\/products\/anthony-romaniuk-on-modes-lp_aec-allp1242-1","provider":"FYE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
