Lydia McCauley : Quieting.
Intriguing piano compositions with dynamic accompaniment.
QUIETING is an all-instrumental recording that sprang forth from an intensely
quiet period of about three years when Lydia lost her singing voice. It was an
inward time, what she calls "the midlife turnstile - that introspective place
where one crosses the threshold into the second half of life." The fragrance of
trees, seeds drifting through the forest, and the unexpected friendship of a
frog inspired such pieces as "Hawthorn," "Cottonwood," and "Every Bug, Every
Bee, Every Breath."
Full of childlike wonder and beauty, QUIETING is quieting. There are
extraordinary musicians featured on the recording, such as Grammy Winner Nancy
Rumbel (oboe, English horn) and Jami Sieber (cello), Lee Mohler (trumpet and
flugelhorn) and Lydia's long-time group of musicians.
