After Silence

Per-Olov Kindgren: After Silence (VLRCD00107)

The music of After Silence is not "classical" in the normal way, (although it might be thought so in a hundred years.) Rather, it is "songs without words" played on the classical guitar. It is melodic, easy-listening music that puts you in a state of calm and rest. The compositions are all about expressing feelings and telling a story to the listener – the best way of communicating for a composer!

This album is titled After Silence because silence is a key element in music. The total silence before the music begins is filled with expectations and excitement. And the silence after the music stops is bursting with echoes and thoughts and pictures about the music. Those moments are vital. And while they last just a few seconds, they are nevertheless the most important part of the musical sound. The rests creates space and time between the sounds. Without them, the sound would be meaningless, and so a great part of the music can be found between the notes.

Reviews for After Silence

"In capturing silence, Peo strikes at the very heart of his musical being. His guitar is a part of himself, an extension of himself and his emotions. ... Peo Kindgren's music not only provides the listener with charming, intimate music, but enriches the guitar reportoire for the benefit of those who enjoy playing music on the guitar with romantic expression."
- Mark Antony, Hotel Mark

"...incredible, original compositions."
"...this Cd is like a Painting with many different colors and feelings..."
"... an amazing musician, very precise and accurate."

The first CD in the Villa Luisa catalogue, Urban Morphology is a collection of stories and destinies from the modern metropolis. Victories, defeats and experiences in the night cause lives to take shape, change and reshape again and again. Rock, pop and modern jazz are joined together on this album to create a fascinating musical experience from a new name on the Danish musical scene.

Reviews for Urban Morphology

"Urban Morphology, the debut CD from Copenhagen based musician Sufiano, has a 70’s pop jazz vibe with touches of Brazilian sensuality and New York soul. Sufiano is a hopelessly romantic singer/songwriter cut from the same hipster cloth as Michael Franks, Boz Scaggs, and Al Jarraeu."
- John Barron, Jazzreview.com
