Urze De Lume
As Arvores Estao Secas E Nao Tem Folhas
'As Arvores...' is the second and final chapter of Urze De Lume's ode to autumn, in a follow-up to the acclaimed 'Vozes Na Neblina' EP released in early 2017. Although predominantly focused on guitar-based pieces, the leading role in 'As Arvores...' is often taken on by the rebec, a bowed stringed instrument whose fiddle-like timbre brings forth an archaic, medieval-like, character to the album's instrumental canvas, which further expands on occasion to include wind instruments, discreet percussions and bagpipes. The intentionally minimalist aesthetics seem to match the beauty of bare trees to perfection, yet Urze De Lume's use of multiple field recordings allows the hues of autumn to embed deeper into the music.
