The Lift Equation

Picture
Recorded over a very rainy long weekend in March 2010 in a private mudbrick home at the base of Mt Piper in Broadford, one hour north of Melbourne. Peter Knight plays trumpet on Misc and Afterrain. Sound engineer is Myles Mumford. Cover design and images of light reflecting off the Yamaha C5 piano by Myfanwy. Released July 2010.

"The Lift Equation is a nod to the theory of flight. The title track, which takes its inspiration from the Wright brothers early attempts at flight...is an uplifting, delicate piece of musical engineering where the violin soars gently to its highest sonic altitude. Other tracks pay homage to creatures of flight – the albatross, and (my personal favourite), the Indian influenced song of the nightingale, Koyaliya. The Lift Equation has the musical formula to indeed take the listener to a higher plane."
Mike Glover - Border Crossings, PBS FM
