About the event
Alex Madeline, a passionate composer, transcends into another realm when immersed in the creative process. For Alex, art serves as a profound source of inspiration, igniting the spark for musical compositions. Each melody in the album is a narrative, a tale woven not for technical powerless but driven by a vivid imagination.
Alex is currently setting the stage for a musical journey that captures the essence of storytelling and emotional depth. The intention is to infuse a unique blend of classical structure with modern deviations showcasing departure from technicalities for a more narrative-driven experience.
"This recording of complete musical awareness, opens on the aching orchestral yearn, at first, latterly a scattered, yet playful series of rhythms that drives Direction and the sweeping elegance of Balance and then we get the more precise, delicate, spoken word work of Or3, the veritably glistening Voyage, and then the recording rounds out with the harmonically-hued Thoughts, closing on the gently strident, haunting swirls and twirls that fluctuate within Dream"-ANNE CARLINI
