| Description: | Poignant, dreamlike and beautiful, and written following the sudden loss of her mother and brother, â??Oraclesâ?? was Silveraâ??s way to transmute her grief into a cathartic work of art.
The recording features Silvera as a soloist, a choir led by Josephine Stephenson and a stellar line-up of guest musicians including pianist Bill Laurance (Snarky Puppy), double bassist Jasper Høiby (Phronesis) and drummer Jacob Smedegaard (Fiction, Du Blonde) as well as Simran Singh (violin), Anne Chauveau-Dhayan (cello) and Naomi Morris (percussion ).
The result is a haunting yet life-affirming collection of songs whose lyrics explore loss, love, salvation and the journey towards acceptance, themes that are underscored by beguiling, weaving choral lines, mellifluous Debussian piano melodies, subtly off-kilter percussion and rapturous strings, all unified by Silveraâ??s dynamic vocal style which evokes the delicate yet theatrical prowess of Kate Bush, combined with what the Arts Desk described as a â??Björk-like spontaneityâ??.
Anaâ??s extraordinary vocal performances are supported by a cast of Jazz royalty, including Bill Laurance (Snarky Puppy, )Jasper Høiby (Phronesis), Jacob Smedegaard (Fiction, Du Blonde) - |
