about

The titles reassure an approach to the music (this piano music in particular) which is concerned with an un-metaphorical touching, sounding, and sensing of the piano, amidst strokes and resonances.

"The first thing you notice about [Kalash's piano playing] is the space that lingers between the notes, as if their selection is a matter of great decision. There is a thorough examination of the keyboard as if it were a palette, studying the canvas and trying to figure how to connect the strokes. This provides an inkling to his thought processes.... At other points, it is like following somebody down a dark path with the terrain constantly changing and you are unable to see properly, just allowing your guide to be your direction. " -- Mr. Olivetti

Recorded at St. Paul’s Hall at the University of Huddersfield early 2020.
