Synchronicity takes on a new meaning
when hearing Balladeste’s circle of trust, strings, and sound.
Where South Indian violinist Preetha Narayanan begins, British
cellist Tara Franks ends, except there isn’t a beginning or ending
and we get blissfully immersed in their circular empathy. Both women
are classically trained, but now running free & boundless,
having forged a unique partnership over ten years, weaving in and out
of each other’s voices as musicians and composers. They
converse fluidly from string to string, undulating through time and
space, drawing listeners inside their melodic boudoir, and
melting the universe into a single entity. Balladeste’s debut album
Relic is available on Bandcamp and iTunes now, plus a CD of
devotional songs is already in the pipeline as a follow up. Listen
out for that as it’ll be sung via violin and cello through one
perfect voice called Balladeste. www.balladeste.co.uk
