Austria’s Christian Fennesz released the album Agora on Touch in March 2019, then performed at the Suoni per il Popolo in June. The recording and concert were simply extraordinary, the sort of rare sound experiences from which one comes out transformed. Rich textural sediments with great saturation effects, digitally processed samples, electric guitars, effect pedals and other microvariations, there’s so much precious metals in the Fennesz mine for prospectors of horizontal music to extract. Total noise coexists perfectly with white noise, with the sharper frequencies and consonantly overlapping melodic scales. Needless to say, this concert by a master back in Montreal is an absolute must.
