about

Vincent Yuen Ruiz toggles between harmony, resonances, dissonances and stillness, on his debut album “Le seul salut que je connaisse”. Instruments slowly breathing, exhaling and inhaling. A sometimes fully absent kind of music, leaving the ensemble quiet in their recording space, the church hall of Koncertkirken in Copenhagen. Noises of the surrounding environment pops in and out, creating a parallel situation with another thread of events. A far away car engine, birdsong, voices of kids playing outside. The group is Pauline Hogstrand (viola), Nicole Hogstrand (viola da gamba), Louise Hjorth Hansen (pætzold, bass flute), Szymon Pimpon Gasiorek (percussions, objects), Greta Eacott (percussions, objects) and the composer himself (double bass, indian harmonium). They treat the instruments as isolated sound sources. No vibrato, very little shifts in amplitude. A non-hierarchical ensemble, attempting to play without overplaying emotions, in a spirit of self-restraint, nonetheless infusing a poetic narrative to the music. Thus the relation between source and space works as equal musical elements forming an exploration of sound’s behaviour and materiality. Slow, lush, and captivating, “Le seul salut que je connaisse” confronts the listeners with a musical environment of micro and macro changes, suggesting a state of high-awareness.
