Amidst the Rupture is a collection of compositions created and recorded during the last year and a half. Each piece, in its own way, echoes the sounds of the time—pain, mourning, rage, longing, and yearning.
Tomer Damsky and the Quantum Choir present a renewed arrangement of the song Days Go By (lyrics: Yakov Cohen, music: Moshe Dafna), as part of Damsky’s research project Sunken Sun, Sunken Soul: Lament for a Hebrew Tune. Yellow Light is Ziv Slama’s composition, written for the Tel Aviv Saxophone Quartet a few months after the war began. In Death Whistle, Daniel Meir uses recordings and arrangements of Aztec death whistles, ancient South American instruments that produce a sound resembling a wind or a blood-curdling scream. Time, by Ronit Rosenthal, consists of two songs that navigate the space between the personal and the political. Stone Between Stones is a new electronic work by composer Amnon Wolman. In a time when the search for hope becomes increasingly complicated, the work seeks to hold onto every ray and desire for hope.
