Chris Gall - Room of Silence (2018) Hi Res

All alone he sat by his grand piano and sometimes also by an almost antique artefact, a piano that had clearly seen better days, where everything rattled and nothing was perfect. The background noise is dominant, but that's why I wanted it I wanted to let the sound character work. Chris Gall smiles. And also because the title of his new album Room Of Silence fulfills his promise: It invites the listener to a trip into the night, and at any time of day. You sit there and listen and close your eyes, because someone has turned on the clock, it now seems slower. As if someone translated the concept of Slow Food into music. The interpreter is Chris Gall, his audiophile guest gradually becomes a listener and finally the director of his own mental cinema. Although this was already the case with his trio works, but if I play alone, Gall says, there is still a bit more space for the listener's imagination. And they'll be presented by Gall with the very same Room Of Silence . A place for quiet and peaceful lingering, perhaps even the contemplation that he wants to show his listeners Soft tones modulate to new sounds, fantasies find their place to breathe. A variety of new impressions, which are often lost in the noisy and fast-paced background noise of everyday life. Maybe that's why a room of silence is simply a place where you want to be able to retire yourself at any time. No matter where you are right now, no matter what happens around you. And maybe this album can help finding this room and opening the door to the Room of Silence.
