Description:

Anna Aldi's "High Tide: Waning Time" mini-album is now on sale! After three albums as the keyboardist of MIZUKI da Fantasie, Anna Aldi made her solo debut on November 27, 2020 with the album "Moon Spell, or Cough of a Madman". Anna Arti, who had been attracting attention for her beautiful keyboard work and bewitching guest appearances during her tenure with MUZUKI da Fartasa, continued her image of progressive rock, combining classical and rock, with classical compositions that tell the story of her life. The album was well received, and she began work on her second album with the same momentum, but she had no choice but to sink into a fever in the face of a coronavirus pandemic, and she finally announced herself. Although her symptoms were not severe, she was found to have another malady during the course of treatment and had to go in for surgery.This mini-album "High Tide/Waning Time" is a collection of songs that were recorded in fragments and completed only on the front side during her treatment, and is different from the planned second album "Arne Lunaire" (to be released in 2024), which was inspired by Schoenberg's "Anna Haunted by the Moon. The content of this album is different from her first planned second album, "Arne Lunaire" (to be released in 2024), which was inspired by Schoenberg. However, the lunatic concept of her music remains intact, and the phenomena brought about by the moon adorn the album's title. The waxing and waning of the moon, the ebb and flow of the tides, and the culmination of these phenomena in her physiology is the waxing of the moon, and the image of the ecstasy of her senses derived from this is contained in this mini album, "He Tide-The Vine Time". She is known as a pianist and a composer of contemporary music, but from her late teens to her mid-twenties, she was active as a pipe organist in several groups. From that sutra, she lent her original organ piece "Moon Spell" on her first album, and this album "High Tide-Yoing Tsurutoki" also includes the dropped ↑piece "Moon Spell River".Other pieces featuring the vibro-organ, such as "Intervention for Lazarus and the Palace Men," are also included on this album, along with the latter's sekku na arrangement, suggesting that Anna Aldi is more of an organist than a bianist on this album. Of course, that is not her only attraction. HiehTkde/Wintering Time" also includes "F's Temperature, Ibara's Rice", a minimalist piece that is a true expression of her talent as a contemporary writer, as well as a new piece for the magazine "Pcatry Readng". Of course, we must not forget her rock side. Classical and church music and the sound of the 70's blogressive rock of the Yellow Age of King Crimson, Genesis, PFM, etc. - the orthodox symphonic rock sound with the introduction of mellotrons and synthesizers is another of her major attractions.
