Laurie Anderson has teamed up with the Kronos Quartet for a new album. Landfall is out February 16 via Nonesuch. The piece, inspired by Anderson’s experience during Hurricane Sandy, has been performed multiple times at festivals. It’s 30 tracks long and features song titles like “CNN Predicts a Monster Storm” and “The Wind Lifted the Boats and Left Them on the Highway.” Listen to “We Learn to Speak Yet Another Language” below. Anderson said in a statement:
“These are stories with tempos. I’ve always been fascinated by the complex relationship of words and music whether in song lyrics, supertitles or voice over. In Landfall, instruments initiate language through our new text software, erst. The blend of electronic and acoustic strings is the dominant sound of Landfall. Much of the music in this work is generated from the harmonies and delays of unique software designed for the solo viola and reinterpreted for the quartet. In addition, there were elements of the optigan, a keyboard that uses information stored on optical discs.”
Anderson has also announced a new book. All the Things I Lost in the Flood is out February 6 via Rizzoli. The new book is a look through Anderson’s four decades of archives. It includes a collection of essays as well as Anderson’s old notebooks, sketchbooks, and much more. Anderson’s last record was the score of her 2015 film Heart of a Dog. Read Pitchfork’s interview with Anderson about that film.
