New CD by Hildur Gudnadottir

The latest issue of Wire Magazine has arrived in the post (I now subscribe, having accidentally missed a couple of issues last year).  For two days it languishes on the top of my reading pile.  A glance at the contents page reveals that one of the main featured albums is the new one by Hildur Gudnadottir, my favourite performer of the last year or so.

The wonders of Amazon downloads mean I have this in about a minute.  As I write this, the one track is barely 5 minutes old, the cello being augmented by her voice - not something she has featured much before.  The review in Wire speaks glowingly of the work - I can barely wait to hear it all, before playing it again!
