Product Description
Emotions quietly stir and resonate in this deeply self-reflective album exploring the terrain between melodic electronic/ambient and modern minimalism. These six pieces utilize gentle melody, harmony, and sonic tonality to poignantly reflect upon the passage of time, life lived, lives passed, and a time of renewal: a sigh of the ages expressed in sound. For this journey, Roach drew on his essential collection of beloved analog synthesizers including a classic 40-year-old Arp String Ensemble, a historic polyphonic synthesizer that swirls and rolls upon itself like the strong currents of a rushing mountain river. Sigh of Ages is the result of extended periods of solitude and personal reflection for the acclaimed composer. Sculpted and refined in his deft hands, the source material of life itself took on a voice that spoke from a deep emotional well of subtle contemplation.
