Text excerpt written by Vanessa Ague, via the label :

"Composer and percussionist Sarah Hennies and composer and bassist Tristan Kasten-Krause make music rooted in observation. Timbres across percussion and string instruments gradually meld into one; pitches gently float into consonance after bristling in dissonance. With The Quiet Sun, their debut duo album, the two musicians present two pieces that survey their nuanced approach to sound as it grows over time. The album, recorded at ISSUE Project Room, presents two works that each show a different lens into the large-scale forms they have developed together. 

The Quiet Sun is a natural meeting point for Hennies and Kasten-Krause, who each write and play music that explores sonic perception. Hennies has composed numerous acclaimed pieces that unfold over long durations, such as recent works The Reinvention of Romance and Clock Dies, and has developed a singular approach to bowed vibraphone and other percussion instruments that foregrounds her attention to timbre and texture. Kasten-Krause plays in a variety of contexts that are also rooted in duration, catharsis, and perception, through performing works by composers like Alvin Lucier and the compositions featured on his 2021 album Potential Landscapes.

The two musicians first connected over a shared love of the landmark composer Iannis Xenakis. As they talked, they discovered they both listened to music in similar ways, finding solace in the exploration of timbre and texture and the slow evolution of sound. Hennies wrote a duo piece, “Hidden Observer,” for them to play together, and their collaboration has since continued. The two sides of The Quiet Sun are emblematic of the practice they have developed over the past few years, showcasing two pieces that are sewn together from the overarching forms in which they work. There is no hierarchy in this music — rather, it builds from open phrases held until intuition tells them to change..."
