Travis Laplante and Yarn / Wire: Inner Garden

New Amsterdam Records (2020)

With Inner Garden, Laplante invites listeners to live inside this rich intensity of music, a sound world that was created through deep connectivity and intuition. “There is a feminine, yin, and receptive musical state that is a vital part of our connection with each other,” explains Laplante, who wrote a compositional framework so that the players could listen to each other deeply and respond equally. “This feels vital and distinct from my past work, which has been rigorously composed with a greater emphasis on physical strength." The result is music that, in Laplante’s own words, “carries a highly precise essence and design, while simultaneously allowing for the performers to put their ears, hearts, and connection with one another above all else.”
