LISTEN - Kaleidoscope Saxophone Quartet, "Oil" (album)
Tinged is an interlude in lives of ever-increasing fast pace and noise.
Inspired by various forms of singing and thoughts upon the idea of one's voice, in particular what it might be like to communicate when that voice is 'lost', it is a time for reflection on the enjoyment of the transition of sound from note to note.
Tinged explores seemingly polar opposite moods - how so often melancholy can contain a glimmer of hope, while joy can be tinged with a bittersweet sadness.
