"With Correspondences - the third release Editions Verde's series "Seeing the Forest in a Tree" - Morgan Evans-Weiler explores one conceptual idea with three iterations realized by Joseph Clayton Mills, Fraufraulein, and the duo Sarah Hughes and Patrick Farmer.
Evans-Weiler's Correspondences came in the form of an invitation for these artists to interact with his score by the same name and each audial-sculptural realization (the visual aspect is highlighted in the included 16-page booklet) has its own ecological temperament of organic materials and balances within the eye and ear.
As Hughes writes in the liner notes: "Morgan Evans-Weiler invited me to realise a new score intended to be interpreted as both sound and sculpture. For me, these are similar materials: one, a contouring of duration, the other, a contouring of matter. Both are made coherent through processes of composition and/or placement in space."
These three carefully crafted recordings offer a rewarding listening experience for established fans of Morgan's persistent and impassioned career as a performer and composer while those unfamiliar with Evans-Weiler's previous work will undoubtedly feel an intrigue for the process and an appreciation for the experience to view his sonic sculptures from three angles."-Editions Verde
