Kali Malone’s latest ‘All Life Long’ builds on a foundation of evolving harmonic cycles drawn from centuries-old polyphonic compositional methods. Deeply moving, the pieces seem to suspend and move time as they alternate between organ, voice, and brass.
Malone’s new album All Life Long, created between 2020 – 2023, presents her first compositions for organ since 2019’s breakthrough album The Sacrificial Code alongside interrelated pieces for voice and brass performed by Macadam Ensemble and Anima Brass. Over the course of twelve pieces, harmonic themes and patterns recur, presented in altered forms and for varied instrumentation. They emerge and reemerge like echoes of their former selves, making the familiar uncanny.
