Lorelei

Piece based on Lorelei painting by Ursula Bravo.

"The myth and the perspective represented was the key. That trapped soul in her own curse for being in love, resonating between the rocks, the water, the wind, at the same time can be almost a free spirit. The piece that you can hear is the emerging of the energy of the cursed soul trough a storm, sometimes you can hear her as an animal entity, other you can hear her as the land.

"All the soundscape come from behind from the scene represented, the moon at the front, the storm at our backs."
