Moments Worth Listening For

The initial breathy attack on the opening track Shimmer where the wood of the flute is as audible as the note.

The extended, decaying silence between phrases in Sun that forces the listener to inhabit the stillness.

The subtle microtonal pitch bends in Tradition that evoke a sense of ancient, unwritten history.
