イギリスの作曲家James Weeksが、2021年5月に同国コンテンポラリーレーベルAnother TimbreからリリースしたCDです。

サステインを効かせたピアノの旋律が美しいSummerをはじめ、フルートやハープ、バイオリンを用いた室内楽ドローン5曲を収録。

5 chamber works by James Weeks, beautifully performed by Explore Ensemble. An album of interlinked pieces that form a sequence. James Weeks says "I was aware of tying the pieces together as a set, by continuing and extending certain poetic ideas, ways of using and combining instruments, and ways of thinking about material....Things like the use of mixed instrumental duos, which comes from Violet-Violute, the use of a slow-moving or static background harmonic layer, which comes from Summer, the overall very soft and intimate instrumental idiom based on long, breath-length sounds, which appears in all the pieces other than Durham. And finally of course the poetic idea of a piece as opening up an imaginary (or remembered) space: music which unfolds as an area or a field, for the listener to wander in without having to follow a complex series of narrative events."
