Lawrence English and Alessandro Cortini issue Immediate Horizon,
a live recording, made at the premiere of the piece, held at Kraftwerk
in Berlin. Having become mutual admirers of each other's work; English
of Cortini's Sonno (HOS 412CD, 2014) and Cortini of English's Wilderness Of Mirrors
(RM 460CD, 2014), the pair were very pleased to receive an invitation
to collaborate together. Following a number of months exchanging
compositional ideas and materials, Cortini and English met in Berlin
several days ahead of the festival and commenced an intense period of
rehearsal and arrangement. The resulting piece, Immediate Horizon,
traces their shared interests in harmony and texture. It is a work that
meditates on saturation and the ruptures that occur when harmonic
elements are stacked. Immediate Horizon's six pieces swell and burst in a perpetual sense of pulse.
