Frederic Lambert - Iridescence (2023) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Iridescence is the variability in the colour of an object with a change in viewing angle—an optical quality that imparts a magical shimmering to the surface of a soap bubble and fills the feathers of a peacock and the wings of a butterfly with brilliant hues. Yet it also hints at the possibility of deeper understanding with a change in perspective, an idea with a broader implication than its original meaning. The works for viola and double bass permit us to see and hear from a different vantage point: two string instruments, often in the shadows of the violin and cello, yet filled with prismatic possibility and potential. From the slow, angular jig of Fisherstreet Duo to Escenas del Sur, the multi-part lament for the families of 1960s South America under tyrannical rule, Iridescence captures a deluge of emotions and textures, inviting listeners to stretch their perspective in novel and expansive directions.
