Portico Quartet Ensemble - Terrain (Extended) - Live in Studio One: An Abbey Road 90th Session

Terrain (Extended) features an expanded version of the composition re-arranged for the Portico Quartet Ensemble - a subtle re-configuration of the band that features a string quartet - and which allowed for the composition's deeper textures and resonances to be fully explored, along the way expanding the dialogue between tranquillity and a subtly unsettling melancholy, that makes Terrain such a beautiful, powerful piece. November 9th 2021 was a very special session. The band (who had first recorded at Abbey Road for their second album Isla back in 2009), brought long-term collaborator, recording and mix engineer, Greg Freeman over from Berlin to work with Abbey Road's Chris Bolster and the resulting concert film Terrain (Extended) - Live in Studio One An Abbey Road 90th Session received it's world premiere broadcast on the Gondwana Youtube channel in October 2022. Collector's edition, 2xLP features a 12 pg booklet with translucent paper overlay, glued into a gatefold.
