about
“Passio” is the debut single from Loup Barrow's upcoming full length Immineo - a complex yet simple composition rich with emotional weight. “It’s a mature piece where the acceptance of impossible love brings tender nostalgia,” says Loup.
Imposing strings, muted horns and minimalist percussion drift as if untethered from earthly rhythms. You’ll hear echoes of Charles Ives, Arvo Pärt and other impressionistic 20th century modernist composers, and the inspiration of 11th-century German composer, philosopher and Christian mystic Hildegarde Von Bingen.
Like their work, Barrow uses a range of harmonic and rhythmic colors that invites the orchestra to build calm depths. He adds into these waves the rich, complex tones of the Cristal Baschet. The slow tempo of the pieces, and the profound sense of space, result in a recording that rewards deep, intentional listening.
