Echo Collective - The See Within (2020)

'The See Within' is scored and composed for violin, viola, cello, harp and, in its first appearance on an album recording, the magnetic resonator piano (MRP). 'All sounds are acoustic, and produced in real time', explain co-founders Margaret Hermant (violin, harp) and Neil Leiter (viola). 'No processing or post-production other than reverb. The acoustic element is Echo Collective's identity. A natural sound'. It's there in the name Echo Collective. 'We're a collective, with our roots in classical music and structure, but we are, in a sense, a shadow of that world, or an echo, whilst projecting a future sound', says Leiter.
