Julianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore :: Tragic Magic

Recorded in Paris, Tragic Magic was sponsored by the InFiné label and the Philharmonie de Paris, providing the duo with access to historic instruments from the Musée de la Musique’s instrument collection. And while there are certainly archaic resonances to these lovely cuts—the madrigal purity of “Perpetual Adoration,” the fairy-tale gentleness of “The Four Sleeping Princesses,” the percussive fervor of round-like, Brian Eno-penned “Melted Moon”—the two musicians also reach for the unknowable future.
