Dutch singer and pianist Lavalu brings back the chamber music of Schubert and Satie on her new album Solitary High. Her touch matches her vocals, leaving tiny space between notes. Her fluid dexterity fills those meaningful spaces. the album is a study in contemplation and soul-searching, but it it can be enjoyed as tribute to the grand piano, that gentle beast that now is purring like a contented cat.
As a composer and lyricist she is the missing link between classical music and jazzy piano pop, genres that are connected seamlessly on Solitary High. Lavalu's low volume music has inner-circle favorite written all over it, catering to people who have the decency to shut up (and leave their phones in their pockets when she plays.
Solitary High is released thru Solid Key Records. Buy it from her website.
