a Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
This is a very unusual record. Sarah Pillow sings 17th
century songs, on one disc in period arrangements, on
the other with modern arrangements. On both she is
accompanied by a sterling cast of musicians.
The traditional arrangements on disc 1 are respectfully
done and allow Pillow's voice a chance to shine. Its
restful pace is refreshing in this accelerating world.
The other disc creates a bridge between the distant
past and the present day. Pillow's voice is still pure
and sweet but the music is more adventurous. It goes
from jazzy to quasi-oriental to ambient and back
again.
The new context suits the songs just fine.
"Remixes" is a powerful, genuinely daring record.
