Première debute Coral Dusk
Patricia Vanneste is proud to present her solo project Sohnarr and its debut album release Coral Dusk which will be out on 15 May 2020 through [PIAS] Recordings.
Back to basics
Late 2018 Patricia traveled on her own through the autumn coloured landscapes of Sweden and Norway. Taking only a violin, a microphone, a laptop and a good pair of shoes with her, she sought out the most remote places she could find. Where her eyes would only meet those of animals or human-shaped clouds.
Nature has always had this strange power over her that makes her forget about who or what she represents in everyday life. Intuitively, with music being the language that can capture what cannot be put into words. Coral Dusk is what the album she brought back home with her. Every note was composed and recorded by Patricia in the middle of nature, and mixed by herself upon her return to Belgium.
Avant-première in 'de Sjel'
In order to give the listener the true essence of Coral Dusk, Patricia has created the Sohnarr Sjel, an impressive art installation cube.
The Sjel is a shelter, a quiet haven but also a reference to the shell we leave behind and let go of what we know and who we are. Its mirrored walls seem to melt into its surroundings in nature and the last thing you see upon entering the Sjel is also what you leave behind that same moment: yourself.
Inside the Sjel, you can find shelter by taking a seat and listening to the music of Coral Dusk whilst staring outside through its one window. There won’t be a more honest listening experience of Coral Dusk than inside the Sjel where solitude meets unity, where the invisible becomes visible.
Natuurpunt Vlaanderen has come on board to offer a unique and exclusive listening experience to discover Coral Dusk by placing the Sjel in their beautiful nature reserves as of March, 4 leading up to the album release on 15 May.
