ARIADNE'S LAMENT
Mary Jane LEACH
- Ref. XL222S
- NEW WORLD RECORDS, 1998. Enregistrement 1993-1997.
"The music of Mary Jane Leach on this album draws on several sources of inspiration. The first is early music, with its polyphony and modal harmonies. Modal writing, as adapted to twentieth-century thought, focusas on the prolongation of a fixed collection of notes, arranged into either a traditional or an invented scale. Melodies and harmonies are created freely from this collection, without forcing them into highly directional and strongly articulated phrases. The result is a luxurious stasis, with poles of actraction-pitches that serve as points of repose-strongly stated. From modal antecedents, Leach derives her own unexpected twists and innovations.
