Vanessa Amara - Leopards (2020)

Vanessa Amara’s “Leopards” strikes with a soft touch of uninhibited elegance and grace. Balancing between traditional impressionist influences but keeping a distinct voice of their own, VA approaches contemporary ambient music with subtle use of piano and layers of drones turning a noble journey into oneiric fields. Where was that autumn Savannah field where wild cats trifle? And can we change our spots, unlike leopards? With that infinite range of meanings, “Leopards” is a friendly call to sharpen your feelings, a call for contemplation.
