Arbos

Sacred minimalism defined by the tintinnabuli style. Choral laments and brass fanfares that feel like ancient stone and cold, clear light.

It's like listening to the sound of a cathedral breathing in total darkness.

A profound, sacred stillness that balances heavy sorrow with a sense of transcendent light.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden, bright brass entry of the title track that feels like a geometric shape appearing in a void.
The way the voices in De Profundis emerge from the lowest possible register of the organ.
The twenty-three minute descent of Stabat Mater where the strings and voices weave a web of agonizingly slow beauty.
