The Wind Balmorhea's latest release, 'The Wind', is a beautiful collection of twelve exquisitely composed, minimalist gems. This record blends modern classical music, ambient Americana, and stripped-down post-minimalist instrumentation.
Inspired by reflections on nature and its fragility, as well as an ancient tale of a saint who brought the wind to humankind, the album was released in 2021 to acclaimed reviews. What sets 'The Wind' apart from other works in the realm of experimental post-classical music is its exploration of the available instrumental palette. The Texas duo successfully returned to their roots as a duo, discovering new inspirations and forging new connections. The result is a superb collection of minimalist post-classical music featuring twelve exquisite compositions, enriched by thoughtful collaborations.
