It is a rare combination, a duo of voice and vibraphone. Two melodic “instruments” that play around, circle each other or become one in unison to form a shared sound tool. The voice sings words, speaks, whispers, forms sounds, breaks the melody, fragments it into sharp-edged splinters that shatter between the clattered chords of the vibraphone and form new shapes in the music. Sparkling, seductive, tentative, questioning.

The words stand alone like monuments to a distant memory or swirl like a shower of syllables. They come from poems selected by Ukrainian singer and vocalist Kateryna Kravchenko together with Luxembourg vibraphonist Arthur Clees. As intimate descriptions of longing and memory, of great beauty and pain.
