It remains a mystery how music appears and comes alive. In his song cycle „Blessed be“, Michael Finnissy explores sensitively twisting and turning lines, shifting between Music’s ancient roots and the ‚moment of Now‘. Magic seems to arise everywhere, if we open up our senses. The performers in ‘Blessed be 1’ are Lotte Betts-Dean, Valerie Wellbanks (‚cello) and Olga Stezhko (piano).
