Cannell, Laura

Lyrelyrelyre

On CD, this is the 11th solo album from Laura Cannell, the UK-based composer, performer and improviser. Cannell calls upon an ancient lyre that was buried in the epic landscape of the Suffolk Coastline to sound once more. She wakes it from its 14-century long slumber and coaxes its shrouded sounds onto this offering. Cannell delves deep into the history of the lyre, finding a way to bring this ancient instrument back into the landscape it once lived in and into her fold of feral chamber music. This nine-track album follows On from Cannell's 2024 release 'The Rituals Of Hildegard Reimagined, making the 12th century seem positively modern in terms of music and lifestyle.
