From @LaraDownes new album "Some Of These Days"
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE A MOTHERLESS CHILD features Lara Downes, piano, in an original solo arrangement by Stephen Buck, mixed with vocals sampled from a 1939 field recording from the Library of Congress Folklife collection. These ghostly voices come from a specific place and time - the rural South during the Jim Crow era - but they echo the heartache of anyone, anywhere, who feels alone and out of place, “a long way from home”.
“This lyrical, evocative set un-starches the musical artifacts of African-American uplift. The pianist approaches spirituals, hymns and legacy pieces with a passion grounded in the knowledge that history is personal: each interpretation deeply reckons with what made her. ”
- Ann Powers, NPR Music
“This could be one of the year’s most important recordings...Some of this music Lara Downes is playing has been with us for centuries. Her interpretations are so precious, that they should continue to extend for centuries to come. It’s a masterful recording.”
