About the Album
The Canadian composer, singer, and poet unveils a confident collection? of ‘tone poems’ – her own post-modern mix of jazz, free improvisation,? ‘contemporary’ classical, poetry, and film music elements. The singer, composer, and poet Lara Solnicki is?praised for her “boldly unique style” . Solnicki’s third album, The One and the?Other – out March 12 on the Outside In Music?label – is an art song project that mines the tension?between her music and poetry. “I call these songs?‘tone poems,’” says Solnicki, “because they are?governed and held together by a ‘poetic logic,’ as?well as being an off-shoot of that tradition.”?
