Sotto Voce
豆瓣
简介
Up until recently, composer and multi-instrumentalist Claire Deak dedicated most of her music-making to others: for film, television and theatre productions, as well as for bandmates and songwriters in need of colourful arrangements. In 2020 Claire released her acclaimed collaborative album with Tony Dupé (saddleback), 'the old capital' through US label Lost Tribe Sound and has since contributed to various celebrated compilations and remix releases as a solo artist.
Claire’s solo work is heightened by her experiences building unique sonic worlds and swaying atmosphere and narrative within screen productions. She has nurtured a deep interest in timbre and tactile DIY approaches, balancing uniqueness and authorship with the invested collaboration that comes with filmmaking.
Her debut solo album 'Sotto Voce' is due out October 6th, 2023 (via Lost Tribe Sound). This music emerged out of postgrad studies in composition and explores the lives and works of two early baroque composers, Francesca Caccini and Barbara Strozzi. The project spilled into research around the early baroque, feminist reparative histories, unfixed concepts of history and temporality, as well as resonance, palimpsest and multi-sensory modes of creating and listening to music.
