Description:Polyhymnia by Yazz Ahmed, released 1 November 2024. This version of Polyhymnia comes as a 2xLP. -
Vinyl LP pressing. Yazz Ahmed's album 'Polyhymnia' celebrates female courage, determination, and creativity. Commissioned by Tomorrow's Warriors in 2015, she wrote an extended work for their Nu Civilisation Orchestra, performed at the Women of the World Festival on International Women's Day at the QEH, London. Channelling Polyhymnia, the Greek Muse of music, poetry, and dance, Yazz created a suite of movements dedicated to outstanding women role models. This album contrasts her previous work, "La Saboteuse," which was driven by her inner-destroyer or anti-muse. Since the premiere performance, the music evolved and deepened, with Yazz choosing to feature a wider pool of artists, including members of her Hafla band and other musical friends, on this recording. Yazz shares her musical response to the stories and achievements of exceptional women, including Rosa Parks, Haifaa Al-Mansour and Malala Yousafzai, and simultaneously illuminates the creativity and talents of her musical collaborators. She hopes to inspire others, echoing Malala's words, "to be brave, to embrace the strength within themselves, and realise their full potential."
On sticker : "Vinyl-master refresh of her 2019 multi award-winning conceptual album. Premium pressing with superior sonic detail. Yazz's celebratory suite for large ensemble premiered by the Nu Civilisation Orchestra at the Women of the World Festival 2015."
